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

A 77-year-old Japanese woman with mediastinal lymphadenopathy and uveitis was diagnosed with sarcoidosis. The bacterial flora in biopsied samples from mediastinal lymph nodes was analyzed using a clone library method with Sanger sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene, and Streptococcus gordonii (52 of 71 clones) and Cutibacterium acnes (19 of 71 clones) were detected. No previous study has conducted a bacterial floral analysis using the Sanger method for the mediastinal lymph node in sarcoidosis, making this case report the first to document the presence of S. gordonii and C. acnes in the mediastinal lymph node of a patient with sarcoidosis.
