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

A 65-year-old man had suffered from rectal bleeding during defecation for a few weeks, admitted to our department. Laboratory findings were normal except a slight elevation in the level of alkaline phosphatase. Multiple polypoid lesions were observed in colonoscopic examination. The histological and immunochemical evaluation showed atypical lymphoid cell proliferation and lymphoepithelial lesions on the colonic mucosa, staining with CD20 (CD20 x 100). After the diagnosis had been confirmed as low grade mucosa associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma. Abdominal computed tomography revealed polypoid lesions throughout the colon and multiple milimetrics lymphadenopathies in the mesentery. The patient was treated with a chemotherapy regimen. During the follow-up, colonoscopic examination and blind biopsies were repeated in every 6 months, revealed endoscopically and pathologically normal mucosa each time. The patient is still alive without any recurrence of the disease 36 months after the diagnosis.
