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

Two atypical cases of infectious mononucleosis in two teenagers with initially negative serology and non-evocative blood examinations are reported. The first patient had recently traveled to Africa, and Epstein-Barr virus negative serology led us to make many extensive investigations. The second patient complained of asthenia for a month, and PET/CT was performed to suspicion of lymphoma. PET scan revealed hypermetabolic lymph nodes in the supradiaphragmatic and subdiaphragmatic stations, along with
