Gastric follicular lymphoma: A report of 3 cases and a review of the literature.
Article in Oncology letters, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Follicular lymphoma (FL) occurs primarily in the gastrointestinal tract, with the stomach being one of the rarest sites. According to the literature, <20 cases of primary gastric FL have been reported, with the number of cases with detailed pathological descriptions being even less. The aim of the present study was to compare clinicopathological features of gastric FL with FL at alternative sites. A total of 3 cases of gastric FL were retrieved from among 3,216 cases in the databases of 4 university hospitals in South Korea: Seoul National University (SNU) Hospital, SNU Boramae Hospital, SNU Bundang Hospital (all Seoul, South Korea) and Dongtan Sacred Heart Hospital Hallym University (Dongtan, South Korea), including 2 primary cases and 1 case that was possibly secondary to nodal FL. The 2 primary gastric FL cases were incidentally detected in routine health check-ups. An endoscopy revealed a single polypoid submucosal mass and biopsies failed to confirm the diagnosis due to minimal mucosal involvement. Therefore, a partial gastrectomy was performed. The epicenters of the tumors were submucosal, with focal extension to the muscularis propria. However, 1 case exhibited an isolated FL nodule in the omentum. Histopathological examination revealed FL of grade 1-2 with a follicular pattern and with strong expression of germinal center markers and B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2). Rearrangement of BCL2 was not identified using fluorescence
