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

backgroundEnteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL) is a rare and aggressive type of extranodal T-cell lymphoma (TCL) arising in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and represents 5-8% of all T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) and 10-25% of primary intestinal lymphomas. CASE PRESENTATION: We reported a 78-year-old woman presenting with severe hypocalcemia. Investigations confirmed vitamin D and iron deficiency as well as hypoalbuminemia. Celiac disease was suspected and confirmed, but despite intravenous calcium and magnesium supplementation and a gluten-free diet, normal electrolyte levels were never reached. Intestinal perforation was the clue to the diagnosis of enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL).

conclusionHypocalcemia can result from multiple conditions. In patients not responding to adequate supplementation, further investigations should be performed to diagnose the underlying condition.
