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 79-year-old Hispanic man was admitted to the intensive care unit with symptomatic iron-deficiency anemia and watery diarrhea. Radiological images revealed diffuse colonic wall thickening, a soft-tissue fullness in the ascending colon, and multiple mesenteric lymphadenopathies. Colonoscopy showed multiple aphthous ulcers throughout the colon and a large deep ulcer with irregular raised borders in the rectosigmoid area. Histological exam of the ulcers showed severe ulcerative colitis, while biopsy of the deep ulcer revealed a well-differentiated adenocarcinoma. Colectomy specimen was consistent with colliding diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and adenocarcinoma.
