A rare case of the superior vena cava obstruction in a 16-year-old boy with Burkitt's lymphoma: A case report.
Article in Journal of Taibah University Medical Sciences, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) is an aggressive non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma. Superior vena cava obstruction (SVCO) is considered a rare presentation of BL and it is usually associated with other types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma such as diffuse large-cell. We report a rare case of sporadic BL with SVCO in a 16-year-old boy with nasopharyngeal, mediastinal, and adrenal masses. The patient presented with a two-month history of left upper neck swelling that increased with time and was not associated with other symptoms. The patient tested positive for COVID-19 on the second day after admission. On examination, he had enlarged solitary lateral cervical and bilateral posterior auricular lymph nodes. There were no signs or symptoms of SVCO regardless of the findings suggested by the computed tomography of the chest. The patient was treated with hyper-CVAD chemotherapy and showed a remarkable resolution of the nasopharyngeal and mediastinal masses with a mild response of his adrenal mass. There were no complications detected during this patient's management.
