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

Extramedullary haematopoiesis (EMH) refers to haematopoietic proliferation outside the bone marrow, most often arising as a compensatory response to ineffective marrow function in chronic anaemias and myeloid neoplasms, particularly myelofibrosis and other myeloproliferative neoplasms. While the liver and spleen are typical sites, renal involvement remains particularly uncommon and may mimic infiltrative malignancy or infection on cross-sectional imaging. We report a 35-year-old woman with biopsy-proven grade 2 myelofibrosis who presented with constitutional symptoms, namely asthenia, progressive weight loss, and intermittent fever, in the setting of pancytopenia. Contrast-enhanced CT demonstrated bilateral thoracic paravertebral and presacral soft-tissue masses, with left peripelvic/pelvicalyceal infiltration, raising concern for infiltrative malignancy or infection.
