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

Diagnosing intracranial space-occupying lesions in patients with AIDS is challenging because they have multiple possible causes. We report the case of a 49-year-old man with AIDS and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who presented with fever and impaired consciousness. He had initiated antiretroviral therapy (ART) and treatment for DLBCL 3 months previously, and treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis and tuberculous meningitis 1 month previously. Gd-DTPA-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging revealed multiple new cerebral ring-enhancing lesions. A left occipital lobe biopsy specimen revealed a necrotic epithelioid granuloma, and
