Hairy Cell Leukemia Diagnosed by Flow Cytometry Despite Absence of Hairy Cells in Peripheral Blood: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) is a rare disease, and detecting hairy cells in peripheral blood is an essential initial step in its diagnosis. Flow cytometry (FCM) is a convenient and effective tool for assessing the immunophenotype, even without distinctive morphological features. We describe a case of HCL; primary myelofibrosis was initially suspected, but FCM findings ultimately led to the diagnosis of HCL. A 47-year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital with progression of pancytopenia, and splenomegaly was noted. The initial pathology report on bone marrow biopsy noted only MF-1 fibrosis. FCM examination showed positivity for CD19, CD20, CD11c, and CD25, and light-chain restriction. Bone marrow biopsy images showed fried egg-like cells, and
