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

Myoepithelial carcinoma (MC) is an exceptionally rare malignant neoplasm that predominantly originates in the salivary glands, with occurrence in visceral soft tissues being exceedingly sparse. Herein, we report the first documented case of primary MC of the gallbladder in a 57-year-old male. Although the patient exhibited non-specific clinical symptoms, radiological evaluations revealed distinctive features, including irregular wall thickening and progressive, non-uniform intraluminal enhancement. Histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses confirmed the diagnosis. Furthermore, we conducted a comprehensive review of the relevant literature, with a specific focus on the imaging features of MC. By consolidating these findings, this study aims to enhance clinical recognition, refine diagnostic accuracy, and provide a valuable reference for the management of this rare malignancy.
