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

Inflammatory leiomyosarcoma (ILMS) is a rare malignant soft tissue neoplasm with smooth muscle differentiation, prominent inflammatory infiltration, and near-haploidization. It is extremely rare in the head and neck region, and no intraoral cases have been reported. The lesion was initially diagnosed as a malignant spindle cell neoplasm at the referring laboratory. Microscopic examination of blocks of excised fragmented lesion revealed a cellular neoplasm composed of plump, spindle-shaped cells with blunt-ended and elongated nuclei and eosinophilic fibrillary cytoplasm arranged in a fascicular, herringbone to haphazard pattern. The tumor cells were interspersed with mixed inflammatory infiltration and were diffusely positive to desmin, SMA, H Caldesmon, and MYOD1. The diagnosis came as Inflammatory leiomyosarcoma. This case is the first reported case of ILMS involving the oral cavity. Even though this lesion is very rare, this neoplasm should be included in the differential diagnosis of a spindle cell lesion with marked lymphohistiocytic infiltration.
