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

backgroundLangerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare condition wherein Langerhans cells proliferate abnormally, adversely impacting organs including lymph nodes, bones, skin, lungs, and pituitary gland. The LCH disease course varies widely among patients from a self-limiting condition to one that progresses rapidly and culminates in death. It is uncommon for multisystem LCH to be observed in adults. Herein we describe a woman suffering from multi-system LCH involvement. CASE SUMMARY: A 37-year old Chinese woman was admitted to the hospital in June 2019 suffering from dyspnea that had progressed over the course of 5 years. Her medical history included: central diabetes insipidus (DI) that had been treated

conclusionWe hope to emphasize the importance of systemic evaluation and of cooperation between multidisciplinary physicians with the goal of improving awareness and detection of this orphan disease.
