Primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the tongue: a diagnostic dilemma of unusual case presentation.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the tongue is extremely uncommon, which makes its diagnosis quite challenging. A panel of 11 markers is used based on morphological differential diagnosis to elucidate the lymphoma subtype. A case of 43-year-old Egyptian man suffering from nodular mass on the right side of the tongue of 4 months duration is presented. No cervical lymphadenopathy was detected. No abdominal organomegaly was noted. The histological evaluation of incisional biopsy revealed a sheet of pleomorphic lymphoid cells with abnormal mitotic figures. A large number of histiocytes were infiltrating the lymphoid cellular sheet. The results of immunophenotyping were extranodal T-cell lymphoma. A proper immunohistochemical workup is crucial for the correct diagnosis and proper management.
