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

Mast cell leukemia (MCL) is a rare and aggressive form of systemic mastocytosis (SM) that commonly involves the bone. This often presents as osteoporosis with focal osteolytic lesions and pathological fractures. Osteoblastic (sclerotic) lesions are rarely seen in MCL. The vertebral bodies are the most common site of bone involvement, with lesions outside of the axial skeleton being extremely rare. MCL presenting with osteoblastic lesions has been reported in the literature, however, there are no reported cases of osteoblastic lesions in the appendicular skeleton. Here we report a rare case of acute aleukemic MCL that presented with diffuse osteoblastic/sclerotic osseous lesions involving ribs, thoracic spine, lumbar spine and pelvis without pathological fractures.
