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

Castleman disease (CD) is an unusual heterogeneous lymphoproliferative disorder that has been classified based on either clinical presentation and disease course or histologic features. Clinically, CD is divided into a unicentric CD (UCD) type and multicentric CD (MCD) type according to the extent of lymph node region involvement and the absence or presence of systemic symptoms. Histologically, it can be categorized into hyaline vascular (HV) type, plasma cell (PC) type and mixed type. The majority of HV-type CD involves a solitary lymph node, and excision surgery is often curative. On the contrary, MCD is a progressive and often fatal disease with lymphadenopathy in multiple nodes, and systemic therapy is needed. Herein we report a unique case of HV-type CD presenting as a single renal mass in a patient with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Despite the rarity, CD should be included in the differential diagnosis of solitary renal mass lesions. An accurate diagnosis is important to avoid unnecessarily risky or extensive operations.
