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 38-year-old female was found to have multiple bilateral lung nodules in a routine chest X-ray examination. Thoracoscopy was performed with biopsy of three nodules from the right lower lobe and Congo red staining showed typical amyloid pattern. Initial diagnosis of pulmonary nodular amyloidosis was made. However, one nodule in the right upper lobe enlarged as detected by follow-up CT scan. The patient underwent F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography ((18)F-FDG-PET)/CT and a significant high FDG uptake in the largest nodule in right upper lobe was observed while the uptake was normal or mildly increased in the other nodules. Meanwhile, right hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes adenopathy was noted. Right upper lobe was resected by thoracotomy. Surprisingly, histopathological findings showed pulmonary epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (PEH) with metastasis of hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes. To our knowledge, this is the first described case of PEH coexisting with pulmonary nodular amyloidosis.
