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) is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm; pulmonary cases can become massive and hypervascular, increasing surgical risk. A 71-year-old woman with a giant pulmonary SFT underwent preoperative angiography, which identified the internal thoracic artery as the dominant feeder. Selective embolization was performed, followed by total left pneumonectomy without cardiopulmonary support. Pathology confirmed margin-negative (R0) resection without pulmonary infiltration or nodal involvement. The postoperative course was uneventful, and no recurrence has been observed for 2.5 years. Preoperative angiographic evaluation and embolization are effective strategies to enhance surgical safety in managing hypervascular giant pulmonary SFTs.
