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

Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a malignant tumor of smooth muscle origin that is most frequently found in the uterus and gastrointestinal tract. LMS involving the head and neck is rare, accounting for only 2.3% of all cases. In this region, LMS tends to be more aggressive and is associated with a poorer prognosis compared to its gastrointestinal counterparts. Furthermore, LMS of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses is extremely rare. Here, we present a case of malignant transformation of a leiomyoma originating from the inferior turbinate, which was successfully treated with endoscopic tumor resection followed by postoperative radiotherapy.
