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

Peripheral nerve sheath tumors (PNSTs) and meningiomas in feline spinal canal are sometimes difficult to differentiate solely on the basis of histopathology. In this study, immunohistochemical markers for differentiating PNSTs from meningiomas were investigated. In the control group, non-spinal PNSTs were immunoreactive for S100 and GFAP but not for E-cadherin, whereas intracranial meningiomas were immunoreactive for E-cadherin but not for S100 and GFAP. In the spinal tumor group, 2/7 cases were immunoreactive for S100 and GFAP but not for E-cadherin and were considered PNSTs. In addition, 5/7 cases were immunoreactive for E-cadherin and not for S100 and GFAP and were considered meningiomas. Immunohistochemistry for S100, GFAP and E-cadherin may aid in the differential diagnosis of feline spinal PNSTs and meningiomas.
