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 tumour (SFT) is an uncommon neoplasm, and its occurrence in the anterior mediastinum is particularly rare, as other differential diagnoses would initially be considered. Clinically, SFTs are typically asymptomatic and are often discovered incidentally through imaging studies. Definitive treatment is achieved through complete surgical resection with negative margins, followed by subsequent histopathological analysis. We present three cases of anterior mediastinal SFT managed at our institution in 2024, treated via both open surgery and a minimally invasive approach using robotic-assisted thoracic surgery. Additionally, we discussed the clinical considerations and criteria guiding the choice between open and robotic surgical approaches.
