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

We present a rare case of newly diagnosed Evans syndrome associated with lung papillary adenocarcinoma in which the patient showed prompt restoration of blood cell count and long-lasting complete remission of Evans syndrome after lung cancer resection. Detailed investigation led to a diagnosis of Evans syndrome. In the first year of the disease, left lower lung papillary adenocarcinoma was diagnosed. Pulmonary lobectomy and three courses of chemotherapy were performed. Six months after the initial visit, the primary lung cancer and the autoimmune diseases appeared to be well controlled. We hypothesized that our patient's initial presentation of hematological manifestation was a paraneoplastic phenomenon associated to her underlying malignancy. This rare case report illustrates the unique relationship between primary lung cancer and the development of paraneoplastic Evans syndrome.
