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

backgroundAggressive fibromatosis, also known as desmoid tumor (DT), is a locally aggressive myofibroblastic neoplasm originating from deep soft tissues, characterized by an infiltrative growth pattern with a tendency for local recurrence. DTs account for 0.03% of all neoplasms, and cases associated with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) account for 5-15% of DTs.

aimsThe aim of this study was to report the prevalence of DTs in patients operated on for FAP, describe the epidemiological profile, and evaluate the risk factors for tumor development, treatments performed, associated complications, and follow-up.

methodsThis retrospective study assessed the medical records of patients with FAP who underwent surgery between 1990 and 2021 and developed DTs during follow-up.

resultsIn the study period, 147 patients with FAP were operated on; of these, 97 underwent total proctocolectomy with ileal-pouch anal anastomosis, 33 underwent total colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis (IRA), 14 underwent total proctocolectomy with terminal ileostomy, and three underwent total colectomy with partial proctectomy and low IRA using an ileal-pouch. A total of 26 patients (17.7%) developed DT; most were female (61.5%), were White (73.1%), and had a family history (84.6%). The most frequent complications were intestinal and ureteral obstructions. Long-term follow-up showed that six patients were free of disease, 14 were stable and undergoing drug therapy, four died due to complications of the disease, and two were lost to follow-up.

conclusionsThe prevalence of DT tumor was relatively high and more commonly observed in patients with a family history of the tumor. The disease presented high rates of morbidity and mortality.
