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

Ewing sarcoma (ES) is a highly malignant tumor originating from bones, exceptionally long bones. ES arising from the epidural extramedullary space, primarily the cervical region, is highly unlikely. There have been only six cases of cervical epidural extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma (EEES) in children reported in the literature, all of whom were older than seven years old. Four of seven cases, including the one mentioned in this study, were male (57%). Herein, we report a 1.5-year-old girl who presented with quadriparesis without cognitive impairment and had initially undergone a metabolic disorder evaluation. The spine MRI revealed a mass in the C2-T6 region, and she underwent a biopsy of the tumor via laminectomy. Microscopic examination confirms a diagnosis of ES based on immunohistochemistry. This is the first literature that presents an infant with EEES.
