Not Always (and Only) Heart Failure-A Case Report of Primary Pleural Lymphoma in an Elderly Patient.
Article in Clinics and practice, 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
Pleural involvement in Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) is well documented, but primary pleural lymphomas are extremely rare, occurring mostly in immunosuppressed patients or associated with chronic pleural inflammation. Nevertheless, the pathogenesis and therapeutic approaches to counteract primary pleural lymphomas are still matter of debate. The authors present the clinical case of an 81-year-old female with respiratory and constitutional symptoms. A valvular heart disease and bilateral pleural effusion were known. The study carried out showed a large right pleural effusion; the fluid analysis was compatible with Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL), and two lymphomatous masses with pleural origin were found at the ipsilateral hemithorax. Primary pleural lymphoma was considered and chemotherapy was initiated with a good response and evolution. The authors report this remarkable clinical case because of its rarity, its excellent clinical evolution and the absence of an immunodeficiency context.
