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

introductionPulmonary artery angiosarcoma is a rare and extremely severe tumor. Our study summarizes the clinical data of patients treated for pulmonary artery angiosarcoma over the period of 2010-2020.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed cases of surgical treatment of patients with diagnosis of pulmonary artery angiosarcoma at our center. Data of operative findings, short-term follow-up, and the long-term results were reviewed where available.

resultsThe 30-day mortality rate was six (67%) out of nine patients. Three (33%) patients were discharged. Data on pulmonary vascular resistance in the earlyand long-term postoperative periods were assessed if possible. Certain computed tomography signs have been identified that can be used to suspect pulmonary artery angiosarcoma and make a differential diagnosis with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.

conclusionThe surgical treatment of choice is pneumonectomy with contralateral pulmonary endarterectomy. Oncological vigilance regarding angiosarcoma in occlusive-stenotic lesions of the pulmonary artery is extremely important. Patients' assessment must be carried out in an expert cardiothoracic surgery center with the involvement of an oncological crew.
