Incidental Diagnosis of Monomorphic Epitheliotropic Intestinal T-Cell Lymphoma: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2020. 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
Monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma (MEITL) is a rare, rapidly progressive, primary intestinal T-cell lymphoma. It is most commonly seen in the Asian and Hispanic populations and is usually not related to celiac disease, unlike type I enteropathy associated T-cell lymphoma. The most common site of occurrence is the small intestine. Patients usually present during the advanced stage of disease with clinical features of intestinal perforation or obstruction. The late clinical presentation and lack of targeted therapy are factors contributing to its poor prognosis. Here, we are presenting the case of a patient who initially came to the hospital for a urinary tract infection. As his abdominal CT scan showed abdominal wall thickening, he underwent further workup which revealed the diagnosis of MEITL.
