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

Cutaneous mast cell tumors have been described in all species of domestic mammals. However, information about these tumors in free-ranging and captive wild mammals is limited, with no reports in procyonids. This report aims to describe a case of disseminated cutaneous mast cell tumor in a captive South American coati (Nasua nasua). The animal was submitted to euthanasia and necropsy. On external examination, multiple papules, nodules, and plaques were distributed over the body surface. On cut section, they were soft and white. Histologically, they were composed of dense sheets of neoplastic cells interspersed with a delicate collagenous stroma. Cells were round and had a finely granular cytoplasm. Mast cell tumors were diagnosed based on histological features, positive staining with toluidine blue, and immunohistochemical labelling for the KIT protein. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of disseminated cutaneous mast cell tumor in this animal species.
