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

Castleman's disease is an atypical lymphoproliferative disorder having two types of presentation--the localized and the multicentric form. The localized form presents as a slowly growing mass with a relatively benign course. Multicentric Castleman's disease has a more aggressive clinical course with diffuse lymph node enlargement and systemic illness. It is rarely seen in childhood and only thirteen cases have been reported in literature. This is the first report of 2 cases from the Indian subcontinent with a maximum follow-up of 44 months one of whom had asplenia.
