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

While lung cancer is the predominant neoplasm causing hemoptysis, rare benign neoplasms can also be associated with hemoptysis. A 60-year-old woman presented with cough and hemoptysis. Chest computed tomography revealed an oval-shaped, well-circumscribed solitary mass (10 cm in size) in the right lower lobe, which had grown rapidly over the past year. The presence of intramass air bubbles and a surrounding halo of ground-glass opacities suggested the hemorrhagic rupture of a circumscribed hematoma into the surrounding lung tissue. Subsequent right lower lobectomy revealed a well-demarcated hematoma; its wall consisted of nonatypical spindle tumor cells, which were histologically diagnosed as meningioma. No meningioma was observed in the central nervous system, leading to the diagnosis of primary pulmonary meningioma. This case highlights PPM as a rare benign tumor (World Health Organization grade 1) capable of rapid development due to intratumoral hemorrhage, presenting with hemoptysis.
