Systemic Non-Hodgkin T Cell Lymphomas Presenting in the Head and Neck Region: An Institutional Experience of a Rare Entity.
Article in Head and neck pathology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
T cell lymphoma (TCL) is a group of rare and aggressive diseases. TCL primary to head and neck organs often present as extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma, nasal type. Systemic TCL with initial head and neck presentation is extremely rare. Here we report our institutional experience. Clinicopathologic data was collected from patients diagnosed with TCL and treated at the University of Alabama at Birmingham between 2002 and 2012. Eleven cases of systemic TCL initially presented at head and neck region were identified. The median age was 54 years and male:female ratio was 1.8. The most common sites involved were sinonasal tissue, tonsil, tongue and larynx. Most patients presented with a mass lesion without systemic symptoms. The presentation of TCL primary to the head and neck region is often non-specific. A misdiagnosis of undifferentiated tumor or chronic inflammation due to ambiguous morphology is not uncommon. TCL should be considered in differential diagnosis and a thorough evaluation is warranted for accurate diagnosis.
