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

Introduction and importance: Pseudomyogenic hemangioendothelioma (PMHE) is a rarely metastasizing intermediate endothelial neoplasm. It typically presents as multiple, discontinuous nodules in the lower extremities of young adult males. Most cases present skin or soft-tissue tumors, but intraosseous lesions without soft-tissue involvement are extremely rare. We report a case of PMHE of the tibia, diagnosed with FOSB staining. Presentation of case: A 36-year-old man presented with pain in the lower left leg after exercise and at night. X-ray, SPECT/CT, and MRI revealed two discontinuous lytic lesions within the cortical bone of the left tibia. A curettage procedure was performed for biopsy, but a diagnosis could not be made for a long time. After further consultation, FOSB staining was positive in the nucleus, leading to a definitive diagnosis of PMHE. No recurrence or metastasis was observed 2 years after surgery. Clinical discussion: PMHE is a rare endothelial tumor, and cases limited to bone without soft tissue involvement are exceptional. Diagnosis is difficult because of overlap with myogenic and epithelioid tumors, but nuclear FOSB staining is a reliable marker. Although local recurrence is frequent, metastasis is rare, underscoring the importance of accurate diagnosis and long-term follow-up. Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of considering PMHE in the differential diagnosis of bone tumors, the utility of FOSB immunostaining in confirming the diagnosis, and the need for long-term follow-up given the high risk of local recurrence.
