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

Trousseau syndrome is most commonly defined as a hypercoagulability syndrome associated with mucin-producing adenocarcinoma. We report here a rare case of Trousseau syndrome presenting as pulmonary arterial hypertension. The patient complained of cough and increasing exertional dyspnea. Rapidly progressive symptom development of pulmonary arterial hypertension accompanied by right heart failure was observed, and the patient died on hospital day 2. An autopsy revealed Krukenberg tumors on both ovaries and a signet-ring cell gastric carcinoma. In the lungs there was tumor embolism with signet-ring cells to some extent, but the peripheral pulmonary arteries were occupied primarily by pulmonary embolism with platelets, fibroblasts, and fibrotic organized thrombi.
