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

Lennert lymphoma (LeL) is a rare variant of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (PTCL/NOS) that is rich in epithelioid histiocytes. LeL may pose great diagnostic and therapeutic challenges to the pathologist and clinician. Primary extranodal soft tissue LeL is even rarer and has not been reported. Herein, we report a case of LeL arising from soft tissue.A 65-year-old male presented for evaluation of a painless mass in the subcutaneous soft tissue of the left forehead. There was no invasion of the bone and no ulceration on the surface of the skin. The surrounding skin was erythematous and swollen. Grossly, the tumor was gray-red and 30 mm × 20 mm × 10 mm in size.Microscopically, the demarcation between the lesion and surrounding tissues was unclear without a capsule. The tumor invaded the surrounding striated muscle and adipose tissue. The tumor had a diffuse proliferation of small-sized atypical lymphocytes and numerous large clusters of epithelioid histiocytes. Plasma cells, eosinophils, and Hodgkin-Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells were not identified. Rare multinucleated histiocytes were noted, and well-formed granulomas were not present. Rare mitotic figures were noted, but no necrosis. The immunophenotypic features in this case were as follows: CD2
