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

Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a rare and highly aggressive malignancy predominantly affecting young male patients, typically originating from the abdomen or pelvis, with a poor prognosis. Since the first description as a distinct clinical entity in 1989, approximately 850 cases have been reported in the literature. All cases share the chromosomal translocation t(11;22)(p13;q12), leading to the formation of the EWSR1-WT1 fusion gene. DSRCT characteristically arises in the abdomen or pelvis and carries a poor prognosis despite multimodal therapy. We report a rare and extensive case of abdominopelvic DSRCT with liver and peritoneal metastases in a 17-year-old Moroccan male, who presented with a progressive abdominal mass, pain, and hepatomegaly. The diagnosis was initially challenging due to the non-specific clinical presentation. The final diagnosis was established through liver biopsy and immunohistochemical analysis. The patient is currently undergoing treatment with a multidrug chemotherapy regimen.
