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

As of the most recent WHO classification of immunodeficiency diseases, lymphoproliferative disorders that occur during treatment with immunosuppressive drugs are classified as "other iatrogenic immunodeficiency-associated lymphoproliferative disorders (OIIA-LPDs)" other than post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders. Most patients with OIIA-LPD have rheumatoid arthritis as the underlying disease. Research indicates that approximately half of people diagnosed with OIIA-LPD see a remission of their lesion after stopping treatment with methotrexate (MTX), a drug used in rheumatoid arthritis treatment. Hereby, we present the case of an 81-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis who developed OIIA-LPD at the bilateral lingual margins. The patient had been receiving MTX for the preceding 10 years. After determining that OIIA-LPD was MTX-related, the patient underwent MTX withdrawal and was treated conservatively. The lesion resolved one month after MTX withdrawal. This case report confirms immunosuppressive drug withdrawal as a potentially effective treatment for multiple OIIA-LPDs of the oral mucosa.
