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

A 71-year-old man presented to this clinic for evaluation of an unclear abdominal tumor. He complained of abdominal pain, weight loss and motility disorders, which began some weeks previously. Ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) scans showed a large mesenterial space-occupying lesion with accompanying lymphadenopathy, slight accumulation of ascites and venous congestion. For confirmation of the suspected diagnosis of a sclerosing mesenteritis and exclusion of a lymphoma a laparoscopy was carried out with excision of tissue. The material was not adequately representative so that a laparotomy was carried out for removal of a new tissue specimen. The tissue specimen confirmed the rare diagnosis of sclerosing mesenteritis and due to the complaints a pharmaceutical treatment with prednisone and tamoxifen was initiated.
