Absence of chlamydial infection in Japanese patients with ocular adnexal lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue.
Article in International journal of hematology, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Ocular adnexal extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (ocular adnexal MALT lymphoma) are predominately low-grade, small B-cell types and may be caused by several putative inflammatory agents. Twenty-three ocular adnexal MALT lymphoma cases, the monoclonality of which was confirmed by examination of immunoglobulin heavy chain gene rearrangement and/or cell surface antigens, were analyzed for evidence of several causative factors. A serologic evaluation of our series of patients showed no evidence of infection by Epstein-Barr virus, hepatitis C virus, or Chlamydophila psittaci. Two patients tested positive for serum antibodies for autoimmunity, and another 2 patients tested positive for antibodies against Chlamydia trachomatis. Polymerase chain reaction analysis did not reveal the presence of the chlamydial 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene or the 16S-23S spacer rRNA gene. These results indicate that the inflammatory agents in our series of ocular adnexal MALT lymphomas are still unknown and that some types of chlamydial infections are not associated with orbital adnexal MALT lymphoma in southern regions of Japan.
