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

Bladder Paraganglioma (BPG) is a rare form of pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL) characterized by elevated blood pressure when urinating, headache, dizziness, palpitations, and hematuria. Surgical resection is the most commonly used treatment for BPG. Here, we reporte a man who initially presented with hypogastralgia and hematuria and was diagnosed as BPG at local hospital. The size of mass was too huge to receive partial cystectomy at diagnosis. Then this patient was referred to our medical center. After evaluation, we chose temozolomide as neoadjuvant therapy to reduce the tumor size. Followed by seven cycles of temozolomide, the tumor was decreased and was successfully removed via partial cystectomy.
