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

Immunoglobulin (Ig) G4-related disease has been recently described. This disease affects various organs, including lymph nodes. We describe the case of a 52-year-old Japanese man with IgG4-related lymphadenopathy with inflammatory pseudotumor (IPT)-like features. Five years ago, the patient noticed a painless mass in the mandible but did not consult a doctor. Recently, he noted that the mass had increased in size and consulted an oral surgeon in the hospital. Excisional biopsy was performed for diagnosis. Histopathological examination revealed that most of the enlarged lymph node was occupied by the hyalinized tissue. A few residual lymphoid follicles with hyperplastic germinal centers and infiltration of plasma cells and eosinophils were observed. Most of the plasma cells expressed IgG4, and the ratio of IgG4-positive cells to IgG-positive cells was 57.1%. These findings were consistent with IgG4-related lymphadenopathy. In conclusion, pathologists should consider IgG4-related lymphadenopathy when diagnosing a lesion with IPT-like features.
