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 74-year-old man with no overt symptoms was referred for a chest computed tomography (CT) that revealed multiple bilaterally pulmonary ground-glass nodules (GGNs) with subtle changes in size over eight months. Surgical lung biopsies were performed in the left upper lobe. A pathologic study confirmed the intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL). This lesion was a nodule-like cluster of atypical cells, meaning that it had been localized for several months. Pulmonary IVLBCL may form focal lesions presenting as GGN on chest CT and progress slowly without apparent symptoms.
