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 fibrous tumor (SFT) generally arises from different soft tissues. It was previously known as hemangiopericytoma. Intracranial SFT is a distinct mesenchymal type of primary brain tumor with an intermediate biological potential. This report described the manifestation and management of a woman (in her late 60 years of age) with a rare extra-axial SFT of cerebellum. SFT has some neuroimaging characteristics that mimic meningioma. We have reported its distinct histopathological findings. Importantly, SFT demonstrates more aggressive local behavior and a significantly higher rate of recurrence than meningioma. In the present case, the skull bone was eroded and eventually penetrated with focal destruction by the tumor. We completely excised the tumor and subsequently reconstructed the skull bone with an artificial alloplastic titanium mesh. This uncommon case report emphasized the value of accurate SFT diagnosis and demonstrated outcomes achieved by complete surgical resection with bony reconstruction.
