Thymic mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma associated with bilateral orbital pseudotumor.
Article in General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma of the thymus is a rare condition, often characterized by its occurrence in a context of autoimmunity. We reported a first case of thymic MALT lymphoma following bilateral orbital pseudotumor. A 48-year-old man presented with bilateral exophthalmos diagnosed as orbital pseudotumor. His symptoms were relieved by an oral corticosteroid. Eleven years later, a mediastinal tumor was incidentally discovered. A thymectomy was performed, and histological examination revealed that the mass was a MALT lymphoma. There was no recurrence with no further treatment.
