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

Objective: To summarise the clinical and familial characteristics of two patients with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated T/NK-cell lymphoproliferative diseases carrying heterozygous Methods: We retrospectively analysed the clinical courses, pathological findings, flow cytometry results, EBV detection in sorted cell populations, genetic testing results, and familial segregation data of the two patients, supplemented by a review of the relevant literature. Results: Patient 1 was a 34-year-old man who presented with fever, gastrointestinal bleeding, and multiple colonic ulcers. EBV was predominantly detected in NK cells, followed by persistent expansion of abnormal NK cells, bone marrow involvement, and progression to NK/T-cell lymphoma complicated by haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Genetic testing identified a heterozygous Conclusion: Both adult patients with EBV-associated T/NK-cell lymphoproliferative diseases carried a single heterozygous missense variant in
