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

Colorectal adenocarcinoma is the neoplastic proliferation of glandular tissue in the distal gastrointestinal system and can be managed using surgical resection, novel chemotherapeutic regimens, and radiation therapy. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a common double-stranded DNA virus that has the potential to transform B-cells into lymphoproliferative disorders given the presence of particular conditions such as immunocompromised and chronic inflammatory states. Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignancies worldwide; however, the additional finding of EBV-positive lymphoma in a patient with a history of colorectal malignancy is uncommon, and this phenomenon has not been thoroughly explored. This report investigates the association between rectal adenocarcinoma and EBV-positive large B-cell lymphoma in an 87-year-old Caucasian male residing in the United States and explores possible causes for this occurrence.
