Leptomeningeal relapse in primary cutaneous DLBCL: Implications for a prophylactic CNS therapy.
Article in Cancer reports (Hoboken, N.J.), 2021. 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
backgroundIsolated leptomeningeal relapse in a case of cutaneous lymphoma is an uncommon event more so in a case of primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PCDLBCL). This phenomenon is of great significance as the subsequent prognosis becomes poor and the prophylactic central nervous system (CNS) therapy if administered, can reduce the chances of relapse, however, the survival benefit remains uncertain. The role of prophylactic CNS therapy is not well defined in the case of PCDLBCL. CASE: We report a case of PCDLBCL leg type with a low CNS International Prognostic Index (CNS-IPI) risk, who developed isolated leptomeningeal relapse in the form of bilateral facial nerve palsy. He was managed by 2nd line chemotherapy and CNS directed therapy and achieved complete remission.
conclusionPCDLBCL leg type is an aggressive malignancy. Molecular/genomic mechanism likely responsible for CNS dissemination should be identified by prospective multi-centric studies that can better define the subsets of patients eligible for prophylactic therapy in the absence of a high CNS-IPI risk.
