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

Sialadenitis has rarely been reported in patients with infectious mononucleosis (IM). Our patient was a 22-year-old man who presented with bilateral swelling of the parotid and submandibular glands, a fever, malaise, and splenomegaly. Laboratory tests revealed an increased percentage of atypical lymphocytes in the leukocyte fraction. Serological testing for antibodies against Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) revealed an acute infection pattern. The patient was diagnosed with sialadenitis associated with IM caused by EBV infection. With symptomatic treatment, the salivary gland swelling completely resolved within a week. This case suggests that EBV-induced IM should be included in the differential diagnosis of diffuse sialadenitis with elevated atypical lymphocyte counts.
