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

Isolated splenic sarcoidosis is a rare entity, but clinicians should consider it in patients with compatible clinical features. Its diagnosis is challenging due to the broad differential diagnosis, which includes hematologic and splenic neoplasms, infiltrative and inflammatory disorders, autoimmune diseases, and infections. We report the case of a 15-year-old female diagnosed with isolated splenic sarcoidosis during hospitalization for fever of unknown origin. Histopathological examination revealed non-caseating granulomas and necrotizing granulomas. The patient showed marked clinical and radiological improvement following corticosteroid therapy, supporting the diagnosis. Despite its atypical presentation, this case highlights the importance of including sarcoidosis in the diagnostic evaluation of prolonged fever, even in young patients without respiratory symptoms.
