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

backgroundExtranodal lymphomas commonly occur in the spleen, but the likelihood of primary liver lymphomas is low. As such, studies on the diagnosis and treatment of primary hepatic follicular lymphoma are limited. CASE PRESENTATION: Two liver space-occupying lesions were found in a 53-year-old female patient through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This patient was preoperatively diagnosed with a malignant tumor of the liver without a liver biopsy. The patient underwent a hepatectomy, a cholecystectomy, and microwave ablation. A definitive diagnosis of follicular lymphoma was confirmed by the pathological examination. Postoperative rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) were administered. The patient survived without a recurrence of the tumor during the two years of follow-up.

conclusionsPrimary hepatic follicular lymphoma is a rare malignant tumor of the liver. Surgical resection of the lesions followed by adjuvant chemotherapy might prevent recurrence in cases of hepatic follicular lymphoma.
