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

In a subset of patients with systemic mastocytosis (SM), an associated hematologic neoplasm (AHN) is identified. Most AHN are myeloid neoplasms, whereas lymphoid neoplasms are uncommon. We report on a 70-year-old female patient with bone marrow mastocytosis (BMM) associated with primary cutaneous follicle center lymphoma (PCFCL). Initially, the patient had developed BMM at the age of 61 years. Since then, she suffered from recurrent anaphylaxis and vitiligo. A BM investigation revealed several compact aggregates of MC exhibiting CD25 and the KIT mutation D816V. The basal serum tryptase level ranged between 26.0 and 30.9 ng/ml. Nine years after the initial diagnosis of BMM, the patient developed cutaneous nodular reddish lesions on her scalp. Histologic examination excluded mastocytosis and revealed PCFCL. Radiation therapy resulted in regression of cutaneous lesions. This unusual case demonstrates that patients with BMM may develop a lymphoid neoplasm in extramedullary sites, including skin. However, both neoplasms were separable from each other by site and pathology, which would argue for two separate etiologies and against a classical AHN.
