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

Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most lethal extracranial solid malignancy in children and presents with diverse clinical manifestations. Extra-abdominal symptoms may delay diagnosis. This case involves a previously healthy 6-year-old boy who presented with a one-month history of isolated lameness. Initial clinical examination and pelvic radiography were unremarkable. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated bilateral bone metastases, while abdominal imaging revealed a right adrenal mass. Surgical biopsy and histological analysis confirmed a non-amplified NMYC adrenal NB. The patient received neoadjuvant chemotherapy, complete surgical resection, and adjuvant chemotherapy. Histopathological examination confirmed a differentiating NB. The postoperative course was uneventful.
