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

Different mechanisms have been proposed in lymphomatous involvement of the optic nerve. They include isolated optic nerve lymphoma, optic nerve lymphoma associated with primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma, or with systemic lymphoma. We present one case of non-Hodgkin lymphoma of the optic nerve in a Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) patient and discuss the mechanism of metastasis, classification of optic nerve involvement with clinical and radiologic features as well as treatment options. Despite the uncommon nature of optic nerve infiltration by lymphoma, prompt evaluation should be considered in patients with a history of lymphoma and visual symptoms as delays in treatment can result in permanent vision loss. The recommended initial workup includes neuroimaging and cerebrospinal fluid evaluation. Treatment options are not standardized but include intravenous and intrathecal chemotherapy, corticosteroids, and radiation.
