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 very rare malignancy. Reasons for hospital admission are variable. PRESENTATION OF CASE: 76 years old man admitted to emergency service with sudden and massive obscure gastrointestinal bleeding. There was no complaints in his history. After initial evaluation, emergency laparatomy had to be done. Bleeding lesion in proximal jejunum was resected. Histopathologically, the muscularis propria had abundant atypical lymphoid infiltrate in diffuse pattern. Atypical lymphoid cells expressed CD3 and CD30. The jejunal mucosa adjacent to the tumor showed effacement of normal villous architecture. DISCUSSION: EATL is known to cause anemia as a result of chronic bleeding. However in this case, the bleeding was abundant, irreplaceable and requiring emergency surgery. To our knowledge it is not reported previously.

conclusionA sudden and massive gastrointestinal bleeding can be the first and unique sign of EATL.
