Primary follicular lymphoma of the spleen incidentally found in a patient with alcohol- and hepatitis C-related liver cirrhosis.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental pathology, 2014. 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
Primary splenic lymphoma is rare as non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Splenic infiltration of lymphoma cells may cause splenomegaly in many cases. However, splenomegaly is caused not only by tumor involvement but also by non-tumorous disorders. One of the most prevalent non-neoplastic causes is portal hypertension mostly due to liver cirrhosis. On the other hand, liver cirrhosis may underlie various extrahepatic manifestations including development of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Here, we report a case of primary follicular lymphoma of the spleen in a patient with liver cirrhosis related to hepatitis C and alcohol. The lymphoma was incidentally found in an enlarged spleen resected palliatively to alleviate symptomatic pancytopenia of the patient. The main characteristic of our case is an incidental finding of a rare situation brought by careful pathological examination. Our case illustrates the importance to recognize a possibility of co-occurrence of chronic liver disease and extrahepatic lymphoma.
