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 reported two cases of the central nervous system (CNS) multiple myeloma (MM) with unusual presentation of sixth nerve palsy. The first patient developed in the setting of newly diagnosed MM and the second patient in the relapsed refractory setting. One underwent surgery, and the other received radiation. Both patients received systemic chemotherapy and noted improvement. We also performed a comprehensive literature review of previously published cases of sixth nerve palsy from MM. This review highlights the importance of recognizing this presentation of CNS multiple myeloma to avoid delays in diagnosis and to get appropriate management in time.
