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

Chordomas are rare tumors believed to be arising from the notochord remnant in the axial skeleton. Diagnosis is often difficult since they show overlapping imaging features with other more common disease including metastases. Since individualized papers are only discussing the imaging features at different locations, the aim of this pictorial review is to have a comprehensive review on the common imaging findings of chordomas along the entire neuroaxis with a series of pathological proven cases in a local tertiary hospital in Hong Kong.
