Primary central nervous system lymphoma.
Review in Current oncology reports, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare variant of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that is increasing in incidence. Methotrexate-based chemotherapy in combination with whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) has dramatically improved the outcome of patients. However, treatment-related neurotoxicity is a significant complication, especially after radiotherapy in the elderly. Despite advances in therapy, several important questions remain regarding optimal methotrexate dose, dosing frequency, adjunct chemotherapy, and the impact of deferring WBRT. Advances in biologic therapy and strategies to intensify the delivery of chemotherapy may help to limit the use of radiotherapy, thus lessening potential neurotoxicity. Studies looking at oncogenic proteins as potential prognostic markers for PCNSL may help us to develop risk-adapted therapies.
