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

introductionPrimary lymphomas of the small intestine are rare. Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) occurs sporadically in adults. Nodular lymphoid hyperplasia (NLH) is a rare disorder characterized by diffuse nodular lesions, which represent hyperplastic lymphoid follicles, and it is often associated with immunodeficiency syndromes. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We present a 38-year-old male patient in a state of surgical emergency, suspected of Crohn's disease, who had an unusual combination of NLH and BL of the proximal ileum. Furthermore, retrospectively analyzed documentation revealed selective IgA deficiency. DISCUSSION: Association between NLH and intestinal lymphomas in patients with immunodeficiency syndromes was indicated before. This case report supports the notion on NLH as a transition state between immunodeficiency and intestinal lymphomas.

conclusionThis is one of the first case reports which presents the combination of NHL and BL. The awareness of the existence of this rare combination, especially in young adult males, can improve the diagnostic accuracy and the treatment management.
