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

The superior vena cava syndrome refers to a medical emergency resulting from superior vena cava compression, which develops in 2%-4% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Primary mediastinal (thymic) large B-cell lymphoma is an unusual and aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma that can present with superior vena cava syndrome. We report the case of a Caucasian 21-year-old female, who presented with acute superior vena cava syndrome, having started 2 weeks before. Chest computerized tomography disclosed an anterior mediastinal mass (18 × 14 cm). Thoraco
