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

Cavernous sinus (CS) lymphoma without paranasal sinuses involvement is extremely rare in pediatric population and remains a diagnostic challenge due to its similarity to other tumors located in this area. An 8-year-old boy presented with a 6-day history of gradually developing ptosis in the right eyelid. After admission, his symptoms progressed within 24 h to include right-sided ophthalmoplegia consisting of oculomotor and abducens nerve palsies. Endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) was performed urgently to decompress the CS and to obtain a diagnosis. The postoperative course was uneventful, and there was no complication related to the surgical approach. No immunodeficiency was identified. The histopathological diagnosis was an Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive high-grade mature B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. He was initiated chemotherapy according to COG ANHL01P1 protocol. Two months after surgery, the third and sixth nerve palsies had resolved completely. Currently, he is well and has no clinical or radiological recurrence. This is the first pediatric case with EBV-positive CS lymphoma that underwent EEA for the diagnosis and decompression. In the pediatric population, EEA enables minimally invasive access to the CS and can play an alternative role in the management of CS lesions, either through biopsy or debulking.
