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

Myeloid sarcoma is rare and nasal chloroma is an uncommon initial manifestation of acute myeloid leukaemia. The correct diagnosis is a big challenge. In this report, we present a case of myeloid sarcoma of the nasal cavity with extension to the soft tissues of the face. A 53-year-old woman with a past medical history of thalassemia, not followed up, presented with a progressive greyish swelling in her right cheek associated with a nasal obstruction more marked on the right side and unilateral lacrimation. The diagnosis of myeloid sarcoma was based on histopathology and immunohistochemistry. Bone marrow aspiration testing revealed blasts that met the criteria for acute leukaemia. She received external radiotherapy at a total dose of 30 Gy in 15 fractions without systemic therapy, because she refused to get chemotherapy. She remained under surveillance and symptomatic treatment. The patient was examined four months after the end of the irradiation and showed a spectacular improvement in her clinical symptomatology with a clear decrease in nasal mass.
