Expecting the unexpected - Primary mediastinal large B cell lymphoma presenting as huge lung parenchymal mass.
Article in Respiratory medicine case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The first possibility considered in the etiology of large lung masses is neoplastic lesions. The differential diagnoses of these masses include bronchogenic carcinoma, pulmonary sarcoma, primitive neuroectodermal tumor etc. Primary or secondary pulmonary parenchymal lymphomas presenting as large mass is distinctly rare. We share the case of a young lady who presented with a large left lung mass almost entirely replacing the left lung parenchyma, with associated intrathoracic lymphadenopathy. On evaluation she was proved to have primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma. Treatment with an aggressive chemotherapy regimen led to complete remission of the parenchymal and nodal disease. The uncommon radiological presentation and the excellent therapeutic response despite huge tumor load merit clinical attention.
