Bilateral orbital marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue in a patient with hepatitis B virus infection.
Article in American journal of ophthalmology 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
purposeTo report a case of marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) in the bilateral orbit with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. OBSERVATIONS: A 72-year-old man with chronic HBV infection presented with a bilateral proptosis with slight restriction of ocular motility for 9 months. Computed tomographic images showed well-defined, isodense masses in the bilateral superolateral orbit. Magnetic resonance images showed isointense on T1-and hyperintense on T2-weighted images, with bilateral involvements of the lateral rectus muscles reaching the superior orbital fissures. These masses molded along the globe contour. Incisional biopsies via upper eyelid crease were performed on both lesions. The immunohistopathological diagnosis was MALT lymphoma. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: This case showed a possible association between orbital MALT lymphoma and HBV.
