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

objectivesWe aim to increase awareness of pleomorphic mantle cell lymphoma as a rare, but aggressive form of lymphoma with propensity for recurrence in secondary locations.

methodsWe report the case of a 70-year-old man who presented with chronic post-nasal drainage, dysphagia, and voice changes caused by a tongue base mass.

resultsPartial excision and pathology showed a pleomorphic mantle cell lymphoma, and radiation treatment was completed. A regional recurrence was detected 3 years later and treated with radiation. He had no evidence of disease 17 months after treatment of the recurrence and is under close surveillance.

conclusionsPleomorphic mantle cell lymphoma is an aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that can affect the head and neck. Confirming the diagnosis with immunotyping and genotyping from fresh specimens can guide appropriate treatment and then close clinical follow-up.
