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

Background: Methods: LMM patients treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from June 2013 to December 2022 were retrospectively studied. The clinical data, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), biochemical and hematological parameters, pathogen tests, treatments, and outcomes information were collected and summarized. Results: Ten LMM patients were enrolled in this study. Three were female and seven were male, with a mean age of 54.5 years old. Seven (70%) of the patients had chronic conditions that either affected the liver (1 case), heart (1 case), or immune system (5 cases). The main clinical manifestations were fever (100%), headache, (60%), and disturbance of consciousness (60%). Out of the nine patients taken MRI, enhanced magnetic resonance imaging was observed with cerebral parenchyma and meningeal enhancement in 3 patients, whereas six patients showed non-specific abnormal signals and brain edema. Seven (70%) patients were positive for Conclusion: LMM patients have a high mortality rate. Considering the time and reliability of NGS reports, it would be better to identify
