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 60-year-old man visited our hospital for further examination of an abnormal chest radiograph. Computed tomography (CT) images revealed enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes and multiple pulmonary nodules. Further evaluation by endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) was performed and he was diagnosed with sarcoidosis. Six weeks after EBUS-TBNA, he presented to the emergency department with a high-grade fever. CT scan revealed an enlarged mediastinal lymph node. He was diagnosed with mediastinal adenitis and treated successfully with antibiotics. EBUS-TBNA is a highly accurate diagnostic tool, but clinicians should be aware of mediastinal infectious complication that could be asymptomatic for long period of time.
