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

Natural killer T cell intravascular lymphoma is a rare category of lymphoma among older individuals. The presentation of natural killer T cell lymphoma varies, causing diagnostic challenges for clinicians. Thus far, only a few studies have reported this condition in the context of musculoskeletal symptoms. We encountered a case of natural killer T cell intravascular lymphoma in a patient who presented with symptoms of sternoclavicular arthritis and femoral pain. The initial diagnosis was undifferentiated hematologic malignancy because undifferentiated hematologic malignant cells were seen on the bone marrow biopsy. Further examination showed that the patient had a high fever and abnormal cells in the blood. Flow cytometry findings revealed the abnormal cells as CD16 and CD56 positive, leading to the diagnosis of natural killer T cell intravascular lymphoma. This is the first report indicating the possibility of natural killer T cell intravascular lymphoma as one of the differential diagnoses of acute joint and muscular pains among older patients and the importance of assessing multiple organs, including musculoskeletal organs, to diagnose intravascular lymphoma.
