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

Primary testicular lymphoma (PTL) accounts for ~1% of all non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and has a marked tendency for systemic relapse. The current study presents a unique case of testicular diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of non-germinal center B-cell subtype, with subcutaneous masses as the sole manifestation of the first relapse and central nervous system lymphoma as the second relapse. Subcutaneous relapse and subsequent brain relapse are extremely rare signs of PTL dissemination. The patient received methotrexate-based combined chemotherapy and achieved a partial response. This case presents a rare pattern of treatment failure in this malignant clinical entity.
