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

rationaleThe occurrence of peripheral neuropathy associated with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is uncommon. And autoimmunity may play an important role. We report a case of the patient with NHL, has sensorimotor demyelinating polyneuropathy. PATIENT CONCERNS: The patient presented with a 1-month history of progressive numbness at the distal extremities and motor weakness of the lower limbs. Meanwhile, patient also endorsed a painful lump on her right cheek. And then the enlarged cervical and supra clavicular lymph nodes were observed on admission. Biopsy of the lymph nodes showed NHL. Serum IgM antibodies against GM1 and GD1b were also positive. DIAGNOSIS: Biopsy of the lymph nodes showed NHL. Serum IgM antibodies against GM1 and GD1b were also positive. Thus, the patience was diagnosed with lymphoma and sensorimotor polyneuropathy.

interventionsPatient refused the further treatment. OUTCOMES: After 11-month follow-up, the weakness of bilateral lower limbs worsens. LESSONS: We have presented a case of NHL involving peripheral polyneuropathy with IgM antibodies against GM1 and GD1b. Patients may initially present with peripheral nerve complications or develop them during the course of lymphoma, even when in remission. This could complicate the diagnosis of peripheral polyneuropathy secondary to NHL.
