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

A 66-year-old female presented to the hospital for evaluation of multiple strokes over a three-month period. The patient underwent extensive testing to evaluate for autoimmune vasculitis and other hypercoagulable entities that were negative. Bone marrow and lymph node biopsies showed no evidence of lymphoma. An excisional muscle biopsy was then performed, which demonstrated occasional small blood vessels containing atypical CD20+ lymphoid cells, and a diagnosis of intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL) was rendered. The patient underwent systemic chemotherapy along with CNS-directed therapy, followed by a consolidative autologous stem cell transplant. Here, we will discuss an unusual case of IVLBCL, some of the complications that can arise when diagnosis is delayed, and some of the key principles of diagnostic workup and management.
