1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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) is the most common extranodal lymphoma, with one third of the cases occurring in the stomach. Surgical treatment is a possible option. This case report describes an obese woman (body mass index 46 kg/m2) seeking bariatric surgery, with elevated serum cholesterol and uric acid, negative for Helicobacter pylori but with a positive biopsy for MALT (immunohistochemistry), stage IA. She was submitted to a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and gastric resection. Two months later, she had lost 20 kg and the MALT lymphoma was in complete remission.
