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

An elderly (8th decade) diabetic patient presented with insidious, painless protrusion of the right eye for 1 month, associated with nasal congestion. Past history included healed serous chorioretinopathy in the right eye (>30 years back) and recently diagnosed (1 year prior) autoimmune IgG4-related pancreatitis for which he was on long-term corticosteroids. On nasal endoscopic examination, a well circumscribed mass was found in the right nasal cavity.Keeping in mind the systemic diagnosis, the sinonasal mass was suspected to be a IgG4-related disease. An endoscopic biopsy was performed and revealed a surprise diagnosis of grade 1 nasal schwannoma.
