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

We herein report a case of sporadic intra-abdominal desmoid-type fibromatosis in which contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (US) combined with superb microvascular imaging (SMI) was useful for preoperative diagnosis. 18-Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography performed for systematic screening for lung cancer revealed an abnormal accumulation in the abdominal cavity. Transabdominal US showed a tumor with a mixture of hypoechoic and hyperechoic areas. Contrast-enhanced US combined with SMI revealed dendritic blood flow signals and no abnormal vascular network within the tumor. Macroscopic examination of the resected specimen revealed a white tumor with relatively clear boundaries. Microscopic examination revealed spindle cells with poor atypia proliferating in bundles with collagenous stromal cells. Immunohistochemistry showed nuclear localization of beta-catenin within the tumor cells. From these findings, we finally diagnosed intra-abdominal desmoid-type fibromatosis. Contrast-enhanced US combined with SMI is useful for diagnosing intra-abdominal desmoid-type fibromatosis.
