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

Hibernoma is rare and benign soft tissue tumor, arising from persistent fetal brown tissue. Although radiologic features are not specific, certain imaging characteristics, common locations and patient demographics may suggest hibernoma as a differential diagnosis of soft tissue tumors that have fatty components. Total resection is required due to the possibility of sampling errors in myxoid and well differentiated liposarcoma tissue components that resemble hibernoma. We report the case of a young adult with a right supra-clavicular swelling that had been present for 10 years, with no other associated signs. The patient underwent a CT scan and cervical MRI, with surgical removal, confirming the diagnosis of a hibernoma. This article also reviews the current imaging literature of hibernomas.
