Disseminated form of the Kaposi sarcoma in HIV-negative patient associated with Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
We report a case of a 35-year-old, non-HIV-infected male diagnosed simultaneously with a disseminated form of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS; skin, stomach and colon are involved) and Hodgkin's lymphoma. There is no sign of changes in the immune status, but three herpes viruses were detected in the patient's blood (EBV, HHV6 and HHV8). He received ABVD chemotherapy and achieved complete metabolic remission for Hodgkin's lymphoma. Moreover, the signs of the disseminated KS were resolved. Our observations indicate that a combination of distinct types of viruses may play an important role in triggering the development of angio- and lymphoproliferative disorders in the same person. In addition, treatment with chemotherapy cycles, which included doxorubicin and vinblastine, led to the stable remission of both diseases.
