Successful Outcome of Patellectomy Plus Chemotherapy for Primary Bone Lymphoma of the Patella: A Case Report and Literature Review.
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
Primary bone lymphoma (PBL) is a rare but distinct clinicopathological disease, usually occurring in the pelvis, spine, and ribs. To date, only a few cases have been reported as beginning in the patella. Due to the lack of clinical evidence, the optimal treatment strategy has not been established. Here, we report a case that presented unexplained right knee pain. The case was diagnosed with the non-germinal center, diffuse large B cell lymphoma in the patella by imaging examinations and bone biopsy. Then, the patient received a patellectomy and eight cycles of R-CHOP chemotherapy. After treatment, the patient achieved a favorable prognosis and satisfactory functional recovery.
