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

A 42-year-old man with a history of surgery for tongue cancer was referred to our hospital due to an abnormal chest shadow. High-resolution computed tomography showed lower lobe reticulation. A physical examination revealed nail dystrophy, oral leukoplakia, and reticulated hypopigmentation. Lung biopsy revealed subpleural and perilobular fibrosis, suggestive of usual interstitial pneumonia. However, multiple pathological findings, including homogenous fibrosis and cell infiltration in the centrilobular region, which were compatible with nonspecific interstitial pneumonia, and bronchiolitis were also seen. Genetic testing showed a hemizygous missense mutation in the DKC1 gene, and the patient was diagnosed with dyskeratosis congenita. Although anti-fibrotic therapy was initiated, the patient's respiratory function has continued to decrease.
