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

backgroundA 77-year-old retired research pharmacologist with a long-standing history of anemia and a recent pathologically confirmed diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome was referred to a stroke unit for evaluation of slowly progressive cognitive deterioration, confusion and paroxysmal stroke-like episodes. A previous neurological work-up had revealed no noteworthy abnormalities except for chronic bilateral caudate infarctions seen on MRI and CT examinations of the brain. INVESTIGATIONS: Physical examination, laboratory testing, brain MRI scanning, EEG, transesophageal echocardiography, cerebral angiography, CT scanning, and brain biopsy. DIAGNOSIS: Intravascular lymphomatosis of the brain. MANAGEMENT: Combined chemotherapy with CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone) and rituximab.
