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

Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are rare tumors of vascular origin, derived from pericytes surrounding blood vessels. Their frequency of presentation is mainly in adults, and they can be in various parts of the body, such as the extremities, head, neck, retroperitoneum, and abdomen. These tumors can be either benign or malignant, and their behavior and clinical course are variable, with a significant risk of recurrence and metastasis. We present a two-case report: the first involving a 25-year-old man with right hemiparesis and a history of two prior surgeries at another institution for a diagnosed SFT; the second involving a 48-year-old man with decreased visual acuity and personality changes, with a biopsy confirming SFT. Both cases were managed with embolization followed by resection, with no residual tumor remaining. Treatment of SFTs with embolization and complete surgical resection improves surgical outcomes and reduces the risk of recurrence.
