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

Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) is an uncommon form of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). It commonly presents as chronic, asymptomatic, slow-growing peripheral lymphadenopathy. Central nervous system involvement in NLPHL is rare. Here we report a case of a 28-year-old male patient who presented with a seven-week history of headache and neck pain. The evaluation revealed a diagnosis of subacute meningitis. He was newly diagnosed with NLPHL on lymph node biopsy. With this presentation of subacute aseptic meningitis with a negative workup for infectious, autoimmune etiology, and absence of malignant cells in the CSF, in the setting of newly diagnosed NLPHL, a diagnosis of paraneoplastic aseptic meningitis was made. The patient improved symptomatically with the treatment of his cancer.
