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

abstractCladribine (2-chlorodeoxyadenosine or 2CdA) is a purine analogue that has been used in various non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. We present a case series of six patients with xanthoma disseminatum having systemic involvement, treated with monthly cladribine for three to 12 cycles (median six cycles), leading to 63.3% improvement at the end of treatment, increasing to 75% at the end of 2.1 ± 1.6 years of follow-up. Three patients maintained their response, two continued to improve without further intervention, and one patient relapsed with partial response to reinstitution of therapy. Intracranial lesions improved significantly in all three patients with neurological involvement. One patient with severe laryngeal involvement causing stenosis was able to avoid tracheostomy. Cladribine was largely well tolerated. Half of the patients developed transient leucopenia requiring prophylactic granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, but none of the patients developed any serious infections.
