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

Although a previous autopsy series demonstrated that pulmonary leukemic infiltration (PLI) is a major pulmonary complication in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), an antemortem diagnosis of PLI is rare. Diverse pulmonary complications cause acute respiratory failure (ARF) in patients with AML undergoing chemotherapy. This article reports two elderly patients with AML who presented with ARF due to PLI mimicking severe pneumonia during induction chemotherapy. Accurate antemortem diagnosis of PLI was almost impossible without pathological examination since the clinical course was not typical of PLI. We recommend considering PLI in patients with AML who have an unknown etiology of ARF.
