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

Marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALToma) arises in extranodal sites in the head and neck. Chronic inflammatory, infectious or autoimmune conditions are implicated in its pathogenesis. Within the head and neck, MALToma is often multifocal and indolent and the imaging appearances may be mistaken for non-malignant disease in the head and neck. The aim of this article is to illustrate the varied radiological and clinical features of MALToma in the head and neck, an awareness of which is needed for timely and correct diagnosis to guide subsequent disease management.
