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

Pseudo-Pelger-Huët anomaly (PHA) refers to mono- or bi-lobed granulocytes, reportedly observed in patients with severe infections and inflammation or hematological malignancies including myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Dysplastic changes in granulocytes are typical manifestations in MDS and granulocytic leukemias. Here, we report the unique case of a patient found to have human granulocytic anaplasmosis (HGA), a tick-borne disease caused by Anaplasma phagocytophilum, a Gram-negative coccobacillus. This patient showed striking hematological manifestations including a large number of pseudo-PHA, a severe degree of left shift, and dysplastic granulocytes. These hematological presentations on the peripheral smear all resolved with doxycycline treatment, implying that the changes were most likely reactive manifestations secondary to HGA, rather than underlying hematological malignancies such as MDS or AML.
