Diagnostic approach in hepatic lymphoma: radiological imaging findings and literature review.
Review in Journal of cancer research and clinical oncology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
purposeImaging manifestations of hepatic lymphoma, both primary (PHL) and secondary (SHL), are extremely variable and non-specific, but some features are useful diagnostic clues in an appropriate clinical setting. Through a PubMed search, we found several published reviews focused on PHL and SHL diagnosis. However, to the best of our knowledge, few of them encompass a comprehensive analysis of all the diagnostic tools and relative radiological findings. The aim of this review is to provide a description of the radiological features of both PHL and SHL, by critically analyzing the available literature. MATERIALS AND
methodsAn extensive review of published literature along with a description of personal case series of both PHL and SHL has been conducted.
resultsSHL can be easily diagnosed with imaging techniques, as it is usually associated with node disease. On the contrary the diagnosis can be a challenge in PHL, often mimicking HCC or liver metastasis of adenocarcinoma. In this context, multiparametric MRI plays a fundamental role in the differential diagnosis. Both for PHL and SHL, liver involvement presents as solitary or multiple lesions or as diffuse infiltrative disease.
conclusionPHL and SHL may be correctly characterized using different radiological techniques. Both CT and MRI have showed a good correlation with histology, as they permit to distinguish between lymphomatous tissue, and necrotic and fibrotic areas.
