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

Primary melanoma of the urinary bladder is extremely rare and generally has a poor prognosis. The histopathological diagnosis can be challenging as tumors can be unpigmented and of varying morphology. Here we report a rare example of primary urinary bladder melanoma with clinical, imaging, gross anatomical, histopathologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular findings to illustrate the utility of an integrated approach in establishing the diagnosis and guide therapy. A comprehensive, integrated approach, including molecular studies, may be helpful in further establishing an accurate diagnosis and informing therapies of this rare but poorly behaved entity.
