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

The authors described a case of sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation of the spleen (SANT) in a 50-year-old woman presented with persistent neutrophilia and unintentional weight loss. An incidental splenic mass was initially found on abdominal ultrasound. It was found to be progressive in size and with high likelihood of central necrosis on further CT of abdomen and pelvis. The patient subsequently underwent an uneventful laparoscopic splenectomy. The splenic specimens were sent for laboratory analysis and the histopathological findings were highly suggestive of SANT. The patient then had routine surgical follow-ups and was eventually discharged with no further clinical concern.
