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

An 11-year-old male neutered domestic shorthair cat underwent investigations for right mandibular and prescapular lymph node enlargement and weight loss. Cytology of the mandibular and prescapular lymph nodes revealed marked pyogranulomatous inflammation and mild neutrophilic, non-septic inflammation, respectively. Excisional biopsy of both lymph nodes was performed. Histopathology of the mandibular lymph node revealed severe pyogranulomatous inflammation, with prominent Splendore-Hoeppli phenomenon. Histopathology of the prescapular lymph node was consistent with reactive lymphoid hyperplasia. A Neisseria species was cultured from tissue samples obtained from both lymph nodes, with sensitivity testing confirming susceptibility to amoxicillin-clavulanate. After a 4-week course of amoxicillin-clavulanate (20 mg kg-1 PO q12h), clinical signs resolved. The cat was clinically well with no evidence of recurrence of infection 2.5 years after presentation.
