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

Vulvar metastasis from colorectal adenocarcinoma is extremely rare, with few cases reported in the literature. We present the case of a 49-year-old woman with a history of locally advanced, moderately to well-differentiated invasive adenocarcinoma of the distal rectum treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and abdominoperineal resection, including partial posterior vaginal wall resection. One year later, she developed a vulvar lesion associated with metrorrhagia. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging showed an isolated vulvar lesion without pelvic recurrence. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry confirmed metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma. A multidisciplinary decision led to systemic chemotherapy with irinotecan, leucovorin, and 5-fluorouracil plus bevacizumab. This case highlights the importance of integrating clinical evaluation, histopathology, immunohistochemistry, and imaging in diagnosing rare metastatic sites and emphasizes the role of multidisciplinary board decisions in guiding systemic therapy and optimizing patient management.
