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

backgroundAlveolar soft part sarcoma is a rare tumour of soft tissues, mostly localized in muscles or deep soft tissues of the extremities. In rare occasions, this tumour develops in deep tissues of the abdomen or pelvis. CASE PRESENTATION: In this case report, we described the case of a 46 year old man who developed a primary splenic alveolar soft part sarcoma. The tumour displayed typical morphological alveolar aspect, as well as immunohistochemical profile notably TFE3 nuclear staining. Detection of ASPSCR1 Exon 7::TFE3 Exon 6 fusion transcript in molecular biology and TFE3 rearrangement in FISH confirmed the diagnosis.

conclusionWe described the first case of primary splenic alveolar soft part sarcoma, which questions once again the cell of origin of this rare tumour.
