Primary T-cell lymphoma associated with tubulovillous adenoma of the rectum: report of a case.
Article in Surgery today, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We report what to our knowledge is the first documented case of "peripheral T-cell lymphoma-not otherwise specified" (PTCL-NOS) associated with a rectal adenoma. Colorectal lymphomas are relatively uncommon, but colorectal T-cell lymphomas are extremely rare. The patient was a 92-year-old woman, referred to our hospital for investigation of anal bleeding. Rectal examination revealed a 3-cm pedunculated polypoid mass 5 cm above the anal verge. We performed a transanal local excision, and histopathological examination revealed a tubulovillous adenoma, with the diffuse proliferation of large lymphoid cells mainly discernible in the mucus membrane lamina propria, with infiltration to the submucosal layer. Immunohistochemical examination of the lymphoid cells revealed positive staining for CD3, weak staining for CD4 and CD8, and negative staining for CD5, CD10, CD20, CD56, CD79a, TIA-1, and Granzyme B. The tumor was diagnosed as PTCL-NOS associated with rectal tubulovillous adenoma. The patient died 28 days after surgery, most probably of progression of the PTCL-NOS.
