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

Intravascular lymphoma (IVL) is a rare and clinically devastating subtype of extranodal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with a distinct presentation. Diagnostic difficulty derives from marked variability in clinical presentations and nonspecific laboratory and radiological findings, especially when central nervous system (CNS) symptoms are the only manifestation. Establishing the diagnosis premortem thus remains a major challenge. We describe a 70-year-old male with CNS IVL. He presented with acute onset of neurocognitive impairments. Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed multiple high-intensity areas suggesting occlusive cerebrovascular disease due to emboli, but extensive investigations detected no embolic sources. Intracranial neoplasm was included in a differential diagnosis based on elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase and interleukin 2 receptor levels. Gadolinium-enhanced MRI or 18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET) failed to demonstrate specific findings leading to a definite diagnosis, while
