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

Primary lymphomas of paranasal cavities are rather uncommon entities. They have a variable presentation from fulminant destructive manifestations to chronic indolent type of disease. Chronic indolent form may mimic invasive fungal sinusitis in its presentation. Unless high index of suspicion is held and appropriate histopathology sections are taken from specimen, its diagnosis can be deceitful. We here by report a case of primary lymphoma of the paranasal sinuses which was radiologically and clinically suspected to be a invasive fungal sinusitis and later was proven to be a B cell lymphoma. Clinical similarities between lymphoma and invasive fungal sinusitis along with management issues are discussed in this article.
