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

Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) is a rare entity found in the oral cavity which involves the mandible in only 3% of all UPS bone lesions. The correlation of the clinical presentation of the neoplasm with the histopathological and immunohistochemistry findings is very important for appropriate diagnosis. Its incidence in membranous bone like mandible is rare. According to our literature search in the PubMed database, there are only four reported cases from India some of which does not have any immunohistochemistry findings to confirm the diagnosis. We present a rare case of UPS of mandible which was clinically mimicking squamous cell carcinoma. Upon immunohistochemical analysis, we found vimentin, KI67, CD68 positive and desmin, Melan A, LCA, S100 and myogenin negative, which lead us to the diagnosis of UPS.
