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

backgroundMyeloid sarcoma (MS) rarely occurs in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) at onset, but it can develop in relapse cases, especially after APL treated with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). Therefore little is known about the clinical features and suitable treatment for APL related MS due to the rarity of the disease, although this may be different from the treatment and prognosis of MS in the relapse stage. To our best knowledge, this is the second case report of APL initial presentation as colon MS. CASE SUMMARY: A 77-year-old woman complained of intermittent right lower abdominal pain, black stool, and difficult defecation for 2 mo. Physical examination showed diffuse tenderness during deep palpation and an anemic appearance. Laboratory findings showed positivity for fecal occult blood testing; white blood cell count: 3.84 × 10

conclusionEarly use of ATRA can benefit APL patients, regardless of whether MS is the first or recurrent manifestation.
