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

We describe the first case of LPL simultaneously involving both auricles. Affected ears were the first manifestation of the disease that led to the diagnosis. The lack of appreciable systemic disease allowed sparing the patient from immunochemotherapy. Radiation therapy was used as a single modality and secured a stable remission. A putative pathogenesis of the paired auricular lymphoma is discussed and a literature review presented. While the role of genetic predisposition in our patient was uncertain, we postulate that symmetric ear lymphoma could have been caused by a combined effect of the homing of malignant lymphocytes whose localized growth was triggered by the hazardous environmental exposure.
