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

introductionPrimary pulmonary meningioma (PPM) is an exceptionally rare form of ectopic meningioma, with few cases documented in the literature, and even fewer reports of recurrence following surgical resection. CASE PRESENTATION: This case study details a 69-year-old male patient diagnosed with PPM postoperatively, who experienced a recurrence 10 years after the initial surgery, necessitating a second surgical intervention. The postoperative pathological diagnoses from both surgeries confirmed transitional type primary pulmonary meningioma. The Ki-67 index from the first surgery was less than 1%, while the second postoperative pathology demonstrated a Ki-67 index of 5%.

conclusionThe case emphasizes that, despite its benign classification, PPM has a potential for recurrence, underscoring the importance of ongoing, long-term follow-up in post-surgical management.
