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

A 2-year-old Boxer dog was examined for a 2-week history of progressive, painful right-lateralized paraparesis. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a focal ovoid mass with suspected intramedullary, or less likely, intradural location at the level of L3 vertebral body. Based on the imaging features, neoplasia, and specifically, a nephroblastoma, was suspected. Surgical excision found a difficult to excise mass with indistinct borders. The dog showed marked deterioration postoperatively and was euthanized 3 days later due to suspected myelomalacia. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry of the biopsy revealed that the spinal cord was replaced by a poorly organized proliferation of cells that consisted of both neuronal and glial components, embedded within an edematous neuropil. Immunohistochemistry of the lesion showed positivity for neuronal and astrocytic markers. These findings were consistent with a ganglioglioma, a rare neoplasm in dogs.
