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

A 27-year-old female with a history of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in remission presented with chest pain, liver cirrhosis, and a thrombus in the hepatic vein on ultrasound. Further workup with computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a mass extending from the inferior vena cava to the right atrium, 3.4 x 3.4 x 7.0 cm in size. She underwent excision of the intracardiac mass with a full sternotomy and cardiopulmonary bypass successfully. Her postoperative course was uncomplicated. She was discharged home on postoperative day six. Subsequent histopathology confirmed high-grade leiomyosarcoma. Postoperative positron emission tomography CT showed no evidence of metastatic disease.
