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

Background: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) is a mesenchymal tissue-based soft tissue tumor known for its potential aggressiveness. SFTs located in the abdominal wall are particularly rare. This report presents a unique case of SFT originating from the muscles of the abdominal wall. Case Report: A 40-year-old male patient was referred to our hospital due to a mass in the left hypochondrium. Abdominal ultrasonography (US) revealed a heterogeneous, hypoechoic tumor with lobulated margins and limited blood supply. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using Gadobutrol (Gadovist® 1.0, Schering AG, Berlin, Germany) demonstrated signal intensity heterogeneity and significant enhancement. The mass was excised en bloc. The specimen was immunopositive for Cluster of Differentiation 34 (CD34), Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 6 (STAT-6), desmin, and showed a 10.0% positivity for Ki-67. Follow-up examinations showed no evidence of tumor recurrence. Conclusion: SFTs can display aggressive behavior as they often lack morphological indications of malignancy at the initial stages. For patients diagnosed with SFT, complete surgical excision is curative.
