Contrast-enhanced ultrasound imaging for intestinal lymphoma.
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundIntestinal lymphoma is a rare tumor. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) findings of intestinal lymphoma have not been reported previously, and the relationship between CEUS and clinicopathological features and prognostic factors is still unknown.
aimTo describe the B-mode US and CEUS features of intestinal lymphoma and investigate the correlation of CEUS and histopathological features.
methodsThis was a single-center retrospective study. Eighteen patients with histologically confirmed intestinal lymphoma underwent B-mode US and CEUS examinations between October 2016 and November 2019. We summarized the features of B-mode US and CUES imaging of intestinal lymphoma and compared the frequency of tumor necrosis in intestinal lymphomas with reference to different pathological subtypes (aggressive or indolent) and clinical stage (early or advanced). The time-intensity curve parameters of CEUS were also compared between patients with normal and elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase.
resultsIn B-mode imaging, four patterns were observed in intestinal lymphoma: Mass type (12/18, 66.7%), infiltration type (1/18, 5.6%), mesentery type (4/18, 22.2%) and mixed type (1/18, 5.6%). All cases were hypoechoic and no cystic areas were detected. On CEUS, most cases (17/18, 94.4%) showed arterial hyperechoic enhancement. All cases showed arterial enhancement followed by venous wash out. A relatively high rate of tumor necrosis (11/18, 61.1%) was observed in this study. Tumor necrosis on CEUS was more frequent in aggressive subtypes (10/13, 76.9%) than in indolent subtypes (1/5, 20.0%) (
conclusionB-mode US and CEUS findings of intestinal lymphoma are characteristic. We observed a high rate of tumor necrosis, which appeared more frequently in aggressive pathological subtypes of intestinal lymphoma.
