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

Introduction: Lyme borreliosis has been associated with lymphoma, particularly cutaneous lymphomas. The literature is conflicted regarding the effect of antibiotic therapy in cutaneous marginal zone lymphomas (MZLs) in individuals with Lyme borreliosis. We present a patient diagnosed with Lyme neuroborreliosis (LNB) and disseminated MZL. Case Presentation: A 67-year-old man was seen due to 6 weeks of neuropathic pain with nightly worsening, headache, and 5 kg weight loss. Two weeks prior to symptom debut, he had a tick bite in the left groin, no subsequent rash. A lumbar puncture revealed mononuclear pleocytosis and elevated CSF protein. The patient was admitted and started on ceftriaxone. The Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first published case of LNB with non-cutaneous B-cell lymphoma treated and remitting on antibiotics alone. Antibiotic treatment for
