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

Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (BHDS) is a rare autosomal dominant condition characterized by multiple pulmonary cysts, fibrofolliculomas, and renal cell carcinoma. The typical presentations leading to diagnosis include fibrofolliculomas and spontaneous pneumothoraxes. We present a case of a 52-year-old Chinese male who was diagnosed with BHDS after the incidental pickup of an echogenic heterogenous lesion on an abdominal ultrasound done to investigate an abnormal liver function test. The presence of renal cell carcinoma with cystic pulmonary disease should prompt the clinician to consider the diagnosis of BHDS. Knowledge of extrapulmonary findings of common cystic lung diseases may contribute to improved diagnosis of this condition.
