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: We present a rare case of uterine pilomatrix-like high grade endometrioid carcinoma (PiMHEC). We provide a thorough review of the 16 other PiMHEC cases reported to date, overview of our index case, and considerations for therapeutic approach with a focus on molecular subtyping. Case Summary: This 44-year-old patient presented with widespread metastatic disease at time of diagnosis and initial clinical improvement with combination chemoradiotherapy. Immunotherapy was initiated later in the clinical course and the patient ultimately died of their disease 6 months post-diagnosis. Conclusion: Future clinicians may utilize PiMHEC case reports to formulate a therapeutic regimen and consider early initiation of immunotherapy.
