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

The present report described the case of a 71-year-old man who was admitted to the emergency department with a 7-day history of progressive left flank pain and tarry stool. Bedside point-of-care ultrasound of the left kidney showed lobulated ill-defined hypoechoic foci in the perirenal spaces with mild hydronephrosis. Subsequent contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography revealed lobulated low-density lesions in the bilateral perirenal space and paraaortic space. The patient was subsequently admitted to the internal medicine department of the hospital. Renal and duodenal biopsies were arranged, and pathology reports were consistent with the findings of plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL). This unusual presentation of flank pain and tarry stool caused by recurrent PBL highlighted that genitourinary or gastrointestinal manifestations could occur in cases of PBL recurrence. The patient received intensive chemotherapy regimens comprising a combination of etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide and doxorubicin hydrochloride for aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma to achieve a good response.
