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

Isolated sarcoma with features of mixed-phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL) is an extremely rare disease and it can be easily misdiagnosed as lymphoma or other malignancies. We herein report the case of a 61-year-old woman with non-leukemic sarcoma of the right pleura, pretracheal lymph node, and supraclavicular lymph node with features of MPAL, B/myeloid, not otherwise specified, which was first misdiagnosed as diffuse large B cell lymphoma. After performing a detailed re-examination of the biopsy specimens, few scattered eosinophilic myelocytes allowed us to reach a correct diagnosis of MPAL and the patient was thereafter successfully treated by intensified chemotherapy followed by cord blood transplantation.
