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

Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) remains scarcely reported, and complete tumor resection is the recommended treatment. Herein, we present a comprehensive review of the case of a 52-year-old woman who suffered from recurrent syncope episodes due to IVL with intracardiac extension to the right atrium. Partial tumor resection and postoperative hormone therapy were conducted first. However, the 6-month postoperative follow-up computed tomography scan revealed a tendency for the IVL to increase in size, and complete resection was conducted. In this article, we would like to emphasize that partial resection followed by hormone therapy is insufficient for IVL, and complete resection should be chosen.
