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

Hodgkin's Lymphoma presenting with hypereosinophilia and intractable pruritus is a rare entity. Diagnostic and therapeutic decisions remain a challenge in such patients. Here we report a case of a 25-year-old female with a special case of Hodgkin's lymphoma. A 25-year-old was admitted to our hospital for intractable pruritus and was found to have significant leukocytosis with eosinophilic predominance. The patient underwent a bone marrow biopsy and mediastinal lymph node biopsy, which confirmed classical Hodgkin's lymphoma. Furthermore, the patient was given six cycles of adriamycin, bleomycin, vincristine, and doxorubicin (ABVD) chemotherapy and initially showed improvement; however, she relapsed within a short period. Post-treatment positron emission tomography (PET) scan showed interval progression of the disease, and so the patient was referred for a clinical trial with immunotherapy and Brentuximab vedotin.
