Monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma may mimic intestinal inflammatory disorders.
Article in International journal of immunopathology and pharmacology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
There is a significant overlap between intestinal lymphoproliferative disorders (LPDs) and inflammatory conditions of the intestine, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), in clinical, endoscopic, or histologic appearance, leading to diagnostic challenges. We report two cases of monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma (MEITL) that were initially considered to be ulcerative colitis (UC) and lymphocytic colitis, respectively. Both patients presented with diarrhea and abdominal pain. Colonoscopy revealed hyperemia and scattered shallow ulcerations in the colon, without obvious mass. Microscopically, the first case exhibited features of active chronic colitis. The second case exhibited features mimicking lymphocytic colitis and ileitis. Correct diagnosis of lymphoma was established when the cases were received as consultation, with additional ancillary tests performed. Being familiar with the endoscopic features and unusual histologic patterns of MEITL described here is critical for prompt diagnosis and timely treatment, which may be conductive to a better prognosis.
