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

introductionPrimary pulmonary lymphoma (PPL) is a rare extranodal lymphoma. Only 5% to 20% of patients suffering from PPL have diffuse large β-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and their chest computed tomography (CT) findings show single- or double-lung patchy or flocculated shadows, isolated or multifocal nodules, or masses. In this research paper, we report an older woman having multiple ground-glass nodules, who was eventually diagnosed with primary pulmonary diffuse large β-cell lymphoma (PPDLBCL). PATIENT CONCERNS: A 69-year-old woman suffering from cough was admitted to the Second Hospital of Jilin University. DIAGNOSES: A chest CT scan showed multiple ground-glass nodules. She had received 2 weeks of antibiotic treatment, but the multiple ground-glass nodules were still present. Lung biopsy was performed by tracheoscopy, which showed non-Hodgkin diffuse large β-cell lymphoma.

interventionsThe patient received R-CHOP-21 chemotherapy. OUTCOMES: The multiple ground-glass nodules were absorbed.

conclusionThe current study shows that spotting multiple ground-glass nodules in the lungs is a clear indication of the presence of PPDLBCL. It is important to spread awareness of PPDLBCL, which needs timely diagnosis and management.
