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

We report a case of omicron infection in a biopsy-proven case of carcinoma breast sent for staging F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) during the omicron COVID wave. FDG PET/computed tomography (CT) revealed increased FDG uptake in nasopharyngeal, oropharynx, and tonsillar regions and bilateral cervical lymph nodes along with uptake in primary carcinoma and locoregional lymph nodes. Based on the clinical history and specific pattern of FDG PET/CT findings (as suggested by SNMMI Taskforce), COVID history and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction positivity was elicited.
