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

objectiveTo analyze the CT and MRI features of Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) in nasal and paranasal sinuses. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe CT and MRI images of 23 patients with RDD were retrospectively analyzed.

resultsThe 23 patients included 10 men and 13 women, with a mean age of 43.4 years. Among the 23 cases, only 3 cases (13.0%) had unilateral lesions, and 20 cases (87.0%) had lesions involving bilateral nasal and/or paranasal sinuses. In some patients, the lesions were limited to the nasal and paranasal sinuses (8 cases), while in some patients, the lesions invaded the surrounding tissues (15 cases). 11 patients (47.8%) had enlarged lymph nodes in the retropharynx, parotid gland, and neck. The lesions showed isodense on CT images, accompanied by mild bony absorption and hyperostosis. The lesions showed isointensity on T1WI, mainly hypointensity to isointensity on T

conclusionsThe possibility of RDD should be considered when a bilateral diffuse mass growing along the nasal mucosa is found, with low T
