Ocular adnexal lymphoma: Five case reports and a literature review.
Article in Taiwan journal of ophthalmology. 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
This article reports the clinical course and treatment of ocular adnexal lymphoma based on a retrospective review of five cases with a histologically approved ocular adnexal lymphoma at Kaohsiung Veterans General Hospital over 10 years. Extranodal B-cell lymphoma in the orbit, lacrimal gland, eyelid, or conjunctiva was found in these patients. Four of them were female, and they were aged 45-64 years. All patients were also consulted with hematologists for possible systemic involvement and therapeutic plan. The patient with retrobulbar and orbital apex involvement received systemic chemotherapy. The patient with lacrimal gland involvement experienced tumor recurrence after local excision, and therefore received adjuvant radiotherapy. The remaining three patients had localized lymphoma on the eyelid or bulbar conjunctiva, and they all showed no recurrence after surgical excision. The incidence of ocular adnexal lymphoma has risen worldwide over the last few decades. Although most cases are confined to ocular adnexal, some may also be associated with disseminated lymphoma. Accurate diagnosis and staging is mandatory for appropriate treatment. Generally speaking, localized and low-grade ocular adnexal lymphoma involved eyelid or conjunctiva seem to have good outcome after surgical excision only. Systemic chemotherapy should be considered in patients with advanced disease or systemic manifestations, and radiotherapy also offers a good choice for lacrimal gland lymphoma.
