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

Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common type of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, and cases with large cell transformation (LCT) are generally associated with a poor prognosis. Lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) is a cluster of differentiation (CD)30-positive lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by recurrent eruptions and spontaneous regression, typically following a benign clinical course. Histopathologically, LyP occasionally contains Reed-Sternberg (RS)-like large cells, making it important to distinguish LyP from cutaneous involvement of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and MF with LCT. We report a case in which erythematous papules developed within MF lesions. Skin biopsy of the papule revealed RS-like large cells positive for CD15 and CD30. No abnormalities were detected by imaging studies or flow cytometry, and the papules regressed spontaneously, leading to a diagnosis of LyP. Treatment with oral etretinate and narrowband ultraviolet B phototherapy resulted in improvement of the MF lesions, and no recurrence of the erythematous papules has been observed. As LyP may morphologically resemble cutaneous involvement of HL or MF with LCT, comprehensive evaluation, including clinical course, imaging findings, and immunophenotypic analysis, is essential for accurate diagnosis.
