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

The patient is a one-year-old girl referred to the hospital for an enlarged head after a 1.5-month history of two falls, followed by polydipsia, polyuria, and slow movement and growth. Three subsequent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations of the brain revealed nodular lesions disseminated in the brain parenchyma and intraventricular ependyma, resulting in obstructive hydrocephalus. Thoracic and abdominopelvic sonography showed no additional lesions. The preliminary diagnosis was a primary or metastatic neoplasm or infection. A biopsy of a lesion in the right frontal lobe was taken. The histological examination revealed features of Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD), consisting of limited perivascular lymphoplasma cell infiltration with intervening sheets of proliferated histiocytes, with some of the histiocytes showing endocytosis of a single intact lymphocyte (emperipolesis).
