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

Castleman's disease is a rare pathology, poorly understood. It is considered as a lymphoproliferative disorder, described for the first time in 1954, which may be confused with other causes of lymphadenopathy. We report in this paper the case of a young women presenting with left latero-cervical lymphadenopathy. All the investigations were negative except a large high-vascularized level II cervical lymphadenopathy. We performed a cervicotomy. The extemporaneous histological exam was non-contributive. We decided to perform a complete level II and III left cervical lymphadenectomy. The diagnosis of unicentric Castleman's disease was confirmed based on the final histological study of the specimen, and the absence of other cervical and extra-cervical lymphadenopathy. The patient is free of recurrence at the time of reporting this article.
