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 is a rare and multisystemic entity. It results from the infiltration of tissues by foamy histiocytes. The etiology is unknown, but there are mutations in the MAPK pathway in over 80% of patients, more frequently BRAF mutation. The most commonly affected organs and systems are the skeleton, central nervous system, cardiovascular system, kidney, lungs, and skin. The most common clinical manifestations are bone pain, usually in the lower limbs, and diabetes insipidus. The diagnosis is challenging. It requires a combination of clinical, radiological, histopathological, and molecular findings. We present the case of a patient with typical clinical and radiological manifestations: bone pain and diabetes insipidus at presentation, bilateral long bone cortical sclerosis, hairy kidney appearance, coated aorta, right atrium pseudotumor, and periorbital masses.
