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

background and purposeDifferentiating nodal metastases from reactive adenopathy in HIV-infected patients with [ MATERIALS AND

methodsNine HIV-positive patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (7 men, 2 women; 29-62 years of age; median age, 48 years) with 22 lymph nodes (≥1 cm) who underwent contrast-enhanced CT with [

resultsThirteen (59%) lymph nodes in the HIV-positive group and 22 (36%) lymph nodes in the HIV-negative control group were confirmed as positive for metastases. There were 7 histogram features (

conclusionsCT texture analysis may be useful as a noninvasive method of obtaining additional quantitative information to differentiate nodal metastases from disease-specific nodal reactivity in HIV-positive patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
