Follicular dendritic reticulum cell tumor mimicking inflammatory pseudotumor of the spleen.
Article in Pathology oncology research : POR, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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.
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
In the course of a routine clinical check up of the 54 year old male a splenic well circumscribed tumor like mass of 12 cm in diameter was discovered. Splenectomy with removal of splenic hilar lymph nodes and liver wedge biopsy were performed. Four years later the patient is symptom free. In the removed spleen the tumor like lesion showed a pattern consistent with the diagnosis of inflammatory pseudotumor. However, besides lymphocytes, plasma cells, macrophages, eosinophils and myofibroblasts a high number of slightly polymorphic, frequently binucleated cells positive for CD21 and CD23 were seen. These cells which were scattered or formed smaller or larger groups and fascicles were considered to represent follicular dendritic reticulum cells (FDRCs) and the lesion a FDRC tumor. Flow cytometric DNA ploidy analysis showed a hyperdiploid cell population inside the tumor like lesion. Besides FDRC tumors of high and of intermediate malignancy the present case may represent a low grade type of moderate proliferation activity. The FDRCs of the lesion and a few smaller spindle cells were EBER positive indicative of the presence of EBV. No EBER positive cells were seen in the uninvolved spleen.
