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

Cysticercosis is a common infection in tropical countries with occasional uncommon manifestations. We present the case of a 34 year old immunocompetent man who presented with multiple lesions in a short span of time, some of which were atypical in location viz submandibular region and masseter, aside from abdominal wall. Role of ultrasound, fine needle aspiration cytology and magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosis is discussed. Cysticercosis is a common disease with occasionally unexpected manifestations and hence must be considered in differential diagnoses of swellings in/around head and neck. There should be a low threshold for obtaining ultrasound and fine needle aspiration cytology in such swellings.
