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

Myeloid sarcoma (MS) occurs when primitive or naive myeloid cells form outside the bone marrow. It occurs mainly in soft/connective tissue and skin; orbital involvement is rare. We report the cases of two female adults, analyze the clinicopathologic characteristics, and review the literature. The average age of both patients was 28 years and they presented unilateral proptosis combined with varying degrees of impaired visual acuity and restricted ocular motility in the affected eye. Despite this, they maintained good overall health and no notable family history. However, the patients had no systemic clinical manifestations of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Both patients underwent surgical resection of the orbital tumor. Immunohistochemistry showed positive staining for CD43, Leukocyte Common Antigen (LCA), and myeloperoxidase (MPO) and a high level of positive staining for Ki67, which were diagnostic for MS. Bone marrow cytology examination showed no apparent abnormalities. Postoperative chemotherapy, local radiotherapy, and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) were performed in Case 1, while the second patient underwent adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy. No recurrence or metastasis was found in either patient during follow-up (one more than 5 years, the other more than 10 years). The occurrence of orbital MS is infrequent, with atypical clinical and imaging findings. The diagnosis depends on pathomorphology and immunohistochemical staining, and the prognosis is good with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, local radiotherapy, and allo-HSCT.
