Successful Treatment of Aggressive Mature B-cell Lymphoma Mimicking Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2018. 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
A 55-year-old woman suffered from hemorrhagic tendency. She had severe thrombocytopenia without any hematological or coagulatory abnormalities, and a bone marrow examination revealed an increased number of megakaryocytes without any abnormal cells or blasts. No lymphadenopathy or hepatosplenomegaly was observed on computed tomography. She was initially diagnosed with immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). None of the treatments administered for ITP produced a response. However, abnormal cells were eventually found during the third bone marrow examination. The pathological diagnosis was mature B-cell lymphoma. Rituximab-containing chemotherapy produced a marked increase in the patient's platelet count, and her lymphoma went into complete remission.
