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 bone plasmacytoma of the rib is uncommon but recognized. We report a case presenting with recurrent, predominantly nocturnal chest wall pain. Imaging revealed an expansile lesion on the left ninth rib and initially suggested fibrous/osteofibrous dysplasia. The patient underwent resection of the involved rib segment. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry confirmed solitary bone plasmacytoma. The patient declined the recommended adjuvant radiotherapy. Twenty-one months later, the disease progressed to multiple myeloma.
