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

An 82-year-old woman with monoclonal immunoglobulin (Ig) M-type paraproteinemia had a large opacity in the right lung field. The abnormal shadow on roentgenogram had persisted for more than 6 years since the initial diagnosis of paraproteinemia, which had been diagnosed as Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM). Computed tomography revealed the lesion as a pulmonary tumor which was finally diagnosed as a marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) after surgical removal. MALT lymphoma constitutes the majority of primary pulmonary lymphomas and is often associated with monoclonal IgM-type paraproteinemia as well as WM, a distinctive lymphoproliferative disorder. Pulmonary MALT lymphoma should frequently be suspected in case of an indeterminate pulmonary tumor with IgM-type paraproteinemia.
