1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

introductionPapillary intralymphatic angioendothelioma (PILA) is an exceptionally rare metastasizing soft tissue tumor. It tends to arise in the subcutaneous tissues of distal extremities in children. Only four intraosseous PILA cases have been reported until now in English language literature. CASE REPORT: We present a case of PILA arising in the distal femoral epiphysis of a 50-year-old female patient. It started as a relentless pain in her left knee. A plain radiography revealed a radiolucent area in the left internal femoral condyle. Computerized tomography revealed a 1-cm lytic lesion with a sclerotic rim. Magnetic resonance images showed a significant bone marrow edema signal focused on a 1-cm subchondral lesion suggestive of an intraarticular osteoid osteoma. Histologically, the tumor contained vascular channels covered by a single endothelial layer with intraluminal papillary endothelial structures lined with hobnail cells. Immunohistochemically, the cells were positive for ERG, CD31, and D2-40. The tumor underwent cryoablation and 6 months later, after local recurrence or tumor persistence, a wide tumor resection was referred. After 7 years of follow-up, the patient displayed neither local recurrence nor distant metastases.

conclusionPrimary intraosseous PILAs are exceedingly rare tumors that should be considered in the differential diagnosis of vascular bone tumors.
