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

purposeThis study aimed to assess the imaging features and natural course of hilar and mediastinal sarcoid-like reaction on

methodsSixteen patients with the appearance of sarcoid-like reaction seen on

resultsThe maximum standardized uptake values of sarcoid-like reaction were 3.8-13.6 (mean 6.8). FDG uptake of hilar nodes was symmetrical in 12 (75%) patients and asymmetrical in 4 (25%). The time interval between the initiation of therapy and appearance of sarcoid-like reaction was 9-86 months (median 27.1 months). Among 14 patients who underwent further follow-up using

conclusionAfter the treatment of malignancies, benign sarcoid-like reaction was rarely observed during follow-up. Although sarcoid-like reaction appeared a long time after the treatment of malignancies, it frequently and spontaneously regressed in a relatively short period of time.
