1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Jejunoileal follicular lymphomas (FLs) are rare and have been reported to undergo histological transformation (HT). We report a case of jejunoileal FL transformation into diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). An 82-year-old woman presented with a 5.5 cm ulcerated jejunal mass, identified through double-balloon enteroscopy. The histopathology report revealed diffuse atypical lymphoid cells, which confirmed the presence of DLBCL. Neoplastic follicles confirmed the presence of FL. Genetic analysis revealed a match between the FL and DLBCL. Following a segmentectomy and chemotherapy, the patient is in remission. Based on this case, we should consider the possibility of jejunoileal FLs transforming into DLBCL.
