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

Hepatic involvement with space-occupying lesions seen in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) is a rare phenomenon. We present two cases of extramedullary multiple myeloma (EMM), with different presentations to highlight the diversity of clinical presentation. Clinically relevant hepatic involvement of myeloma is uncommon and can pose management problems. Hepatic involvement of EMM is indicative of a poor prognosis. Early recognition can help stage and prognosticate the disease.
