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

Introduction: Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS), formerly known as malignant fibrous histiocytoma, is a high-grade soft tissue sarcoma arising from mesenchymal stem cells. UPSs are rare and account for about 5% of all soft tissue sarcoma. UPSs arising in the head and neck are especially rare, comprising 1-3% of all UPSs. Case Presentation: In this report, we describe 2 cases of intraocular UPS. Both cases concern 68-year-old males: one developing a UPS in an eviscerated socket after a chronic fibrinous inflammation and the other years after ocular trauma. Conclusion: Our cases may support the hypothesis of chronic inflammation playing a role in sarcoma formation as they are characterized by a longstanding history of (surgical) trauma with signs of chronic inflammation and phthisis bulbi.
