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

High-dose methotrexate (HDMTX) is a commonly used treatment for hematologic malignancies involving the central nervous system. Two case reports described possible delayed methotrexate clearance in patients receiving concurrent levetiracetam, while a retrospective cohort study did not find this association. The objective of this single-center, retrospective case-control study of 121 patients who received their first cycle of HDMTX was to investigate the association between HDMTX clearance time and concomitant levetiracetam use. The most common diagnosis was primary central nervous system lymphoma (47.9%). The mean HDMTX dose was 4601 mg/m
