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

introductionLeiomyosarcomas originating from the inferior vena cava are extremely rare. Because they have a strong tendency to invade the surrounding vital structures, cure can only be achieved by R0 resection. CASE PRESENTATION: A 59-year-old Japanese woman was referred to our hospital because an abdominal tumor had been detected on a routine ultrasound examination. Computed tomography revealed a 7.0 × 5.3 cm lesion occluding the inferior vena cava to the confluence of the common iliac vein and creating a mass effect on the adjacent aorta and common iliac artery bifurcation. After an open biopsy had yielded a diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma, radical surgery was planned. The tumor was excised

conclusionsThis report of a rare case of a leiomyosarcoma originating from the inferior vena cava and invading the aorta emphasizes that this combination of pathologies does not preclude curative surgery. However, more data are needed. Further research on leiomyosarcomas is essential for optimizing management and prognosis.
