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

We report a rare case of sarcoidosis presenting with endobronchial mass in a 34-year-old male patient who presented with progressive shortness of breath and non-productive cough for one month. It is diagnostically challenging due to its non-specific presentations, as mass lesions can mimic malignancy. In this case, CT chest initially revealed mediastinal lymphadenopathy, multiple small peripheral lung nodules and mild right sided pleural effusion. Positron emission tomography (PET) CT revealed mediastinal lymphadenopathy and bilateral subpleural nodules
