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

introductionEnteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL) is a rare subtype of Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma characterized by an aggressive phenotype and poor outcome in the vast majority of cases. Substantial portions of patients either have no prior diagnosis of celiac disease or have a subacute course of celiac disease followed by EATL diagnosis. CASE REPORT: We report a case of a 72-year-old African American male without history of gastrointestinal intolerance who presented with acute abdominal pain and weight loss leading to the eventual diagnosis of gastric EATL. Despite an initial promising clinical and radiographic response to CHOP plus alemtuzumab, the disease rapidly progressed with a fatal outcome. DISCUSSION AND

conclusionThis case and review of the literature highlights the features of this uncommon disease and addresses both the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges of this aggressive malignancy. We also discuss our experience with the use of FDG-PET in monitoring treatment response.
