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

Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a rare and systemic non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. Recently, ECD was classified as an inflammatory medullary tumor that affects a diverse group of organ systems. The purpose of this report is to present the radiological features of this disease in a 51-year-old man with intestinal obstruction as the initial presentation. In this case, X-ray computed tomography (CT) and emission computed tomography (ECT) clearly showed lesions in various systems, especially in the skeletal images. The survival benefit of treatment with interferon α (IFN-α) and BRAF inhibitors is well established, while other treatments focus on symptom relief.
