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
backgroundNon-Hodgkin lymphoma is a systemic disease and various organs can therefore be affected. Ocular manifestations of non-Hodgkin lymphomas are possible but involvement of the eyelids or lacrimal glands are uncommon. CASE REPORT: A 63-year-old female patient suffered from a painless upper eyelid swelling of the left eye for 3 weeks. The anterior and posterior parts of the eyes showed no pathologic signs and X-ray examination of both orbits revealed no pathologic findings. Magnetic resonance imaging and computer tomography of the head revealed a neoplasm of the left lacrimal gland and also of the left parotid gland. The histologic examination revealed a recurrent non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
conclusionsThe causes of eyelid swellings can be multiple, however, painless swellings may also be caused by neoplasms. In the case described here it was interesting that behind a painless eyelid swelling even a systemic disorder was hidden, i.e. a recurrence of a non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which was localized in the lacrimal gland.
