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

backgroundAngioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma is an uncommon subtype of peripheral T-cell lymphoma in children with fewer than 20 cases reported in literature. CASE PRESENTATION: A 3-year-old Omani boy was diagnosed with ataxia-talengectasia presenting with fever and generalized lymphadenopathy. His biopsy revealed atypical lymphocytic infiltrate consistent with the diagnosis of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma. Within 3 weeks from the initial presentation and without any neoadjuvant therapy, he showed complete recovery of symptoms with absence of fever and regression of all previously affected lymph nodes. He has remained in remission ever since.

conclusionThis is the first report of spontaneous improvement of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma in a patient with ataxia-telangiectasia who was 3 years old at presentation. Owing to the paucity of similar cases, this report adds valuable diagnostic, therapeutic, and monitoring data.
