Case Report: Ocular Manifestations and Treatments of Ciliary Body Involvement by Lymphoma.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 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
purposeTo describe the ocular clinical features, histopathological findings, and treatment outcomes of lymphomas involving the ciliary body.
methodsWe demonstrate three cases of ciliary body involvement by lymphoma from 2013 to 2019 in Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH). All patients underwent examinations including best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), slit-lamp microscopy, indirect ophthalmoscope, ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM), and diagnostic vitrectomy. In addition, cytopathology, immunohistochemistry, gene rearrangement, cytometric immunophenotypic, or in-situ hybridization were used for determining the pathological type of lymphoma.
resultsThe patients were a 25-year-old man, a 52-year-old woman, and a 54-year-old man. Two patients had unilateral involvement, and one patient had bilateral involvement. All patients presented with anterior uveitis and elevated intraocular pressure. Ciliary body masses or infiltration were found in 3 patients. Two patients had diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and one patient had natural killer/T-cell lymphoma. All patients received 0.4 mg methotrexate intravitreal injections, and the ciliary body lesions regressed completely.
conclusionLymphomatous involvement of the ciliary body usually presents as an atypical anterior chamber reaction. Vitreous biopsy should be considered in these patients for diagnosis. Methotrexate intravitreal injection combine with chemotherapy or radiotherapy, might extend the survival time and preserve visual acuity for patients with ciliary body involvement by lymphoma.
