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

Introduction Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome, or hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, is a rare genetic disease that causes recurrent epistaxis and anemia. Numerous bleeding vascular malformations can be found throughout the body. Case presentation A 75-year-old woman presented to her hematologist with recurrent epistaxis, iron deficiency anemia, menorrhagia, and hypothyroidism. Her mother had similar nosebleeds, and physical examination revealed small vascular malformations on the conjunctiva, oropharynx, tongue, lip, and palate. Heavy epistaxis occurred several times per week. Multiple nasal and gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures were performed. She received over 100 iron infusions and multiple blood transfusions. Overall treatment involved integrated care with multiple medical specialties. Conclusion Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia and other complex diseases are best treated with a multidisciplinary approach within an integrated health care setting.
