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

Extramedullary plasmacytoma is an unusual manifestation in multiple myeloma (MM). It can present as a solitary bone lesion and/or soft-tissue mass. Plasmacytoma can be presented at any location, but it is more common in the head and neck, usually without systemic involvement. The presence of plasmacytoma in MM is a predictor of rapidly progressive disease. The value of fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (PET-FDG) is increasing, in the diagnosis, detection of occult lesions, and therapeutic monitoring. We describe a patient with rapidly-progressive, refractory, left pectoral muscle plasmacytoma and MM. A PET-FDG guided the therapy and allowed to identify the presence of disease relapse.
