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

Purpose: Histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis (HNL), or Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease, is prone to recurrence in children. However, the frequency and risk factors associated with recurrence remain unclear. Patients and Methods: This study included all children with pathology-confirmed HNL from five hospitals over ten years (2013-2023). This study employed STROBE analysis to investigate the association between clinical characteristics and HNL, which was subsequently verified through in both a derivation group and a validation group. Initial clinical features were collected, and data were randomly divided into derivation and validation sets (3:2 ratio). Cox regression analysis identified risk factors, and receiver operating characteristic curves were used to develop a prediction model. Flow cytometry focused on assessing CD4 Results: Of the 593 HNL cases, 88 (14.8%) experienced recurrence during a median follow-up of 3 years. Cumulative recurrence rates at the first, fifth, and ninth years were 8.7%, 20.0%, and 32.2%, respectively. Factors associated with recurrence included age ≤ 6-year-old (Hazard ratio [HR] 3.6, 95% confident interval [CI], 2.0-6.4), C-reactive protein > 16 mg/L (HR, 1.9, 95% CI, 1.0-3.6), blood CD4 Conclusion: The recurrence of HNL increases over time. Key factors, including C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, CD4
