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

We report a 62-year-old man with myelodysplastic syndrome on immunosuppressive therapy who presented with right lung consolidation and neutropenia. Despite broad antimicrobial therapy for presumed pneumonia, negative microbiologic studies including bronchoalveolar lavage, and a nondiagnostic transbronchial biopsy, serial computed tomography (CT) scans showed progressive right-sided consolidation, pleural effusion and CT signs of pulmonary hypertension. A routine contrast-enhanced CT revealed a filling defect in the right pulmonary artery (PA). Dedicated CT pulmonary angiography confirmed persistent unilateral PA obstruction; together with pulmonary hypertension and a lack of improvement despite anticoagulation, this raised concern for chronic thromboembolic disease and PA malignancy. Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) CT demonstrated mildly heterogeneous FDG uptake (SUV
