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

Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL) is a rare lymphoma characterized by the selective growth of lymphoma cells within the lumen of vessels. We describe the case of a 69-year-old male who presented with marked pain in the left facial region. Gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging revealed a swollen left trigeminal nerve (TN) and positron emission tomography/computed tomography demonstrated fluorodeoxyglucose-only uptake at the same site. The patient had high serum lactate dehydrogenase and soluble interleukin-2 receptor levels. As random skin biopsy and bone marrow biopsy detected no abnormal pathogenesis, open biopsy of the TN was performed, revealing diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). However, ground glass opacities rapidly developed in both lung fields with severe respiratory failure. The patient died of progressive disease before the initiation of chemotherapy. Postmortem examination revealed widespread lymphoma cells in the lumen of vessels in multiple organs, including the lungs, excluding the bone marrow and skin. Lymphoma cells formed a mass in the TN and left lumbar plexus. A diagnosis of IVLBCL was made based on the postmortem pathological analysis. DLBCL of abnormal sites, such as the peripheral nervous system, should be considered in cases of IVLBCL as a differential diagnosis.
