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

Inflammatory pseudotumor-like follicular dendritic cell sarcoma (IPT-like FDCS) is a rare malignancy with fewer than 150 cases in the literature. IPT-like FDCS follows an indolent course with most cases definitively managed with surgical resection. We present a case of IPT-like FDCS with multiple recurrences with a trial of immunotherapy. The patient initially presented with splenic involvement requiring splenectomy, subsequently recurring in the liver requiring hepatic resections. Afterwards, there was recurrence with pelvic/small bowel involvement for which treatment was trialed with ipilimumab and nivolumab. The patient progressed despite dual immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy requiring a small bowel resection. To date, this is the first case of immunotherapy use in IPT-like FDCS. Therefore, more evidence is needed to support additional treatments in recurrent IPT-like FDCS after resection.
