Successful conservative treatment of primary endometrial marginal zone lymphoma (MALT type): A case report and review of the literature.
Review in Medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
rationalePrimary endometrial marginal zone lymphoma (mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue [MALT] type) is a rare histological type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL); therefore, this disease is challenging to diagnosis and treatment. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 61-year-old (gravidity 2, parity 2) female was admitted complaining of postmenopausal vaginal bleeding for 2 months. DIAGNOSES: An ultrasound revealed a slightly thickened endometrium. Histology revealed a dense lymphoid infiltrate in the endometrium, which was suggestive of an NHL. The atypical lymphocytes were positive for CD20 and BCL-2. Moreover, the PCR demonstrated monoclonal heavy chain gene rearrangement. Taken together, the diagnosis of primary endometrial marginal zone lymphoma (MALT type) was established. According to Ann Arbor criteria, the disease was staged IEA.
interventionsDilatation and curettage was performed, and no additional surgery or radiotherapy and chemotherapy was administered. OUTCOMES: The patient was alive with no evidence of cancer for ≥41 months. LESSONS: Primary endometrial marginal zone lymphoma (MALT Type) is a very rare indolent tumor, and its prognosis seems to be good. Thus, conservative treatment and no further therapy were suggested based on the tumor biology.
