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

rationaleEpstein-Barr virus-related posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (EBV-PTLD) is a serious and potentially fatal complication following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). PATIENT CONCERNS: We report a case of a 46-year-old male who developed EBV-PTLD 3 months after haploidentical HSCT for refractory acute myeloid leukemia. The patient presented with a persistent cough and a pulmonary nodule that increased in size from 8 mm × 5 mm to 27 mm × 25 mm over 4 weeks. Increased EBV loads were also detected (peripheral blood EBV sorting: EBV-T DNA 2.09E+03, EBV-B DNA 1.16E+03, EBV-NK DNA 7.89E+02 copies/mL; alveolar lavage fluid: 114 sequences; later rising to 3304). DIAGNOSES: Diagnosis was confirmed by biopsy which showed EBV-positive pleomorphic lymphoproliferative disorder with extensive necrosis.

interventionsTreatment consisted of an oral regimen of chidamide (5 mg once daily) and valganciclovir (450 mg twice daily). OUTCOMES: After 8 weeks of therapy, the pulmonary lesion decreased to 19 mm × 16 mm, and peripheral blood EBV-DNA levels declined significantly. LESSONS: The patient achieved clinical remission with manageable side effects, including neutropenia and thrombocytopenia.
