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

A 70-year-old woman with a hoarse voice and dry cough was referred to our hospital. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography showed abnormal accumulation of fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) at the nasal septum, larynx, trachea, bronchus, and costal cartilages. The maximum standard uptake values of FDG accumulation in the nasal septum and costal cartilage were similar. Biopsies of the nasal septum and costal cartilage were performed. The patient was diagnosed with relapsing polychondritis (RP) based on the clinical features and pathological findings. Histopathological examination revealed progressive initial RP findings. The disease progression was different, even with the same FDG accumulation.
