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 50-year-old female who presented to our hospital for recurrent diarrhea was found to have worsening aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase levels. Workup revealed lymphadenopathy and hepatomegaly prompting a biopsy of the liver and axillary lymph node, confirming a diagnosis of hepatic sarcoidosis. Our patient later developed cutaneous sarcoidosis. She is currently asymptomatic and is followed by gastroenterology, pulmonary, and dermatology. Recognition of extrapulmonary manifestations of sarcoidosis is important for proper management of patients. Treatment often requires a multidisciplinary approach when more than one organ system is involved.
