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

objectivesTo evaluate the effect of pregnancy on the natural course of Mycosis fungoides (MF) and compare the obtained results with previous reports.

methodsThe medical records of 140 patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) treated at the University Hospital of Isfahan (the academic referral center for CTCL) Isfahan, Iran. Between 2000 and 2013 were retrospectively reviewed to retrieve all cases of pregnancy during the course of MF disease.

resultsA total of 8 pregnancies were recorded. The median age of patients at the time of diagnosis was 26.7 (range 21-30 years) and pregnancy 29.4 (range 27-31 years). Most of patients had early-stage MF (Ia and Ib). All patients experienced aggravation of disease during pregnancy or immediately postpartum. Mycosis fungoides did not cause any complications during pregnancy.

conclusionPregnancy appears to have a negative impact on the course of MF, probably due to immune system deteriorations during the pregnancy. Further studies are needed to clarify the interplay between pregnancy and MF.
