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

Hodgkin lymphoma is a rare lymph node malignancy that has the presence of Reed-Sternberg cells. We describe a case of a 72-year-old male with progressive bilateral cervical and inguinal lymphadenopathy with the absence of constitutional symptoms. Primary clinical and radiographic assessment was in favor of an infectious or metastatic etiology. Classical Hodgkin lymphoma was confirmed by excisional biopsy of the lymph nodes that demonstrated classic Reed-Sternberg cells in a polymorphous inflammatory background. Additional support to the diagnosis was provided by immunohistochemistry. The patient was staged at Ann Arbor stage IIIB disease and sent to oncologic care, where he was placed on systemic chemotherapy. The case demonstrates that persistent lymphadenopathy can be a hard-to-detect disease, particularly in tuberculosis-endemic regions, and that a timely biopsy and comprehensive evaluation are necessary to avoid diagnostic lag time and offer treatment before it is too late.
