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

Primary mesenchymal tumors of the meninges include various types, with meningioma being the most prevalent. Non-meningothelial primary tumors of the meninges are uncommon and present diagnostic difficulties due to their potential morphological similarities with each other and with the anaplastic subtype of meningioma. Intracranial dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma is extremely rare and is defined by the presence of both a conventional chondrosarcoma component and a non-cartilaginous sarcoma component. Diagnosing this tumor can be particularly challenging in biopsy samples or when the chondrosarcoma component is not prominently represented. We report a rare case of dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma of the cavernous sinus in a specimen containing only the dedifferentiated component and exhibiting an
