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

In this report, we describe 2 cases of rare intracranial extranodal Rosai-Dorfman disease. The occurrence of this type of non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis in the central nervous system is infrequent, with less than 5% of cases. The first patient was a 35-year-old male who presented with recurring headaches, and the second patient was a 50-year-old male who reported sudden onset of dizziness and vomiting. Computed tomography scans were performed in both cases, but magnetic resonance imaging played a crucial role in the characterization of the lesions and their locations in the thalamus, third ventricle, lateral ventricles, and cerebellopontine angle area. The final diagnosis was confirmed through pathological examination and immunohistochemistry following brain tumor resection. These cases underscore the significance of magnetic resonance imaging in the early diagnosis of intracranial extranodal Rosai-Dorfman disease.
