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

backgroundMalignant extrarenal rhabdoid tumor is a rare and aggressive soft tissue sarcoma that typically affects infants. It poses considerable diagnostic challenges owing to its overlap with other tumors showing rhabdoid features. CASE PRESENTATION: A 6-year-old Indian girl presented in our institute with a gluteal mass arising from the sciatic nerve. Histopathology showed rhabdoid morphology with cytoplasmic inclusions. Immunohistochemistry revealed diffuse epithelial membrane antigen and vimentin positivity, variable cluster of differentiation 99, and loss of integrase interactor 1, consistent with malignant extrarenal rhabdoid tumor. Differential diagnoses-including epithelioid sarcoma, malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, chordoma, and Capicua transcriptional repressor gene-rearranged sarcoma-were ruled out based on immunohistochemistry. The patient underwent wide local excision, postoperative radiation (60 Gy), and adjuvant chemotherapy. Despite treatment, she developed foot drop and local skin necrosis, which was managed surgically.

conclusionsThis case underscores the importance of recognizing distinct features of malignant extrarenal rhabdoid tumor to ensure accurate diagnosis and early intervention, as the disease remains aggressive with a high risk of recurrence despite multimodal therapy.
