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

Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) of the cervix are rare, particularly in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). This report describes a cervical MPNST in an 18-year-old patient with no history of sexual activity, abnormal vaginal discharge, and prolonged menstruation. She had more than six café-au-lait spots on her body since birth and was diagnosed with NF1 at 2 years of age. Positron emission tomography-computed tomography revealed a large pelvic mass and lung and bone metastases. Biopsy confirmed MPNST. Immunohistochemical staining showed diffuse positivity for CD10, approximately 30% positivity for cyclin D1, partial positivity for α-SMA, desmin, and MyoD1, and negativity for myogenin, S-100, and SOX-10. A cancer gene panel identified several genetic abnormalities, but none were actionable mutations. Despite systemic chemotherapy, the tumor progressed rapidly, and the patient died 8 weeks post-admission. Early diagnosis of MPNST is crucial. In patients with NF1, even mild symptoms can indicate MPNST.
