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

Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a type of fibroblastic neoplasm that can occur in various parts of the body, with SFT of the pineal gland being exceedingly rare. We report the case of a 58-year-old male presenting with recurrent hiccups, acid reflux, and headache. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an occupying lesion in the pineal region, suggestive of a neoplastic process. Intraoperatively, the lesion was located in the pineal region, exhibiting a grayish-red color, and was largely resected. Pathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of solitary fibrous tumor (CNS WHO Grade 1). Postoperatively, the patient was supplemented with radiotherapy, and long-term follow-up showed no signs of recurrence or metastasis.
