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

Rosai-Dorfman disease is a rare and self-limiting disease process that presents most commonly in young patients as massive, painless, cervical lymphadenopathy. CNS is a rare site for this disease, and only a few imaging appearances have been described. We report an unusual presentation of Rosai-Dorfman disease with cervical lymphadenopathy and involvement of the paranasal sinuses, intra and extracranial portions of the third division of the right trigeminal nerve, lacrimal glands and subsequent involvement of intra and extracranial portions of the third division of the left trigeminal nerve. Bilateral involvement of the trigeminal nerve with Rosai-Dorfman disease is rare and has only been described in 1 prior case. This case highlights that Rosai-Dorfman disease should be considered in pediatric patients with a mass involving the trigeminal nerve and extensive paranasal sinus disease.
