Spindle Variant Primary Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma of the Colon: Case Report and Literature Review.
Review in Journal of gastrointestinal cancer, 2023. 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
Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with spindle cell morphology is a rare variant that can be seen in extranodal regions. Because the spindle cell dominant morphology in lymphoma is extremely unusual, the diagnosis can easily be missed in many organ systems. We present a case of an 82-year-old male patient with complaints of abdominal pain and swelling. He operated with the preliminary diagnosis of cecum tumor and ileum perforation. Tumoral proliferation was observed originating from the submucosa and infiltrating the muscularis propria, with the features of mostly spindle-shaped, having round-shaped nuclei in some of the cells, and having relatively narrow cytoplasm. A panel of immunohistochemical stains were performed to rule out the possibilities of sarcoma, carcinoma, or melanoma. Diffuse strong positive reaction was observed for CD45, CD20, CD19, CD22, Pax5, and CD30. The case was reported as spindle cell variant of DLBCL based on the present findings. As far as we know, this is the first case described in the colon. We emphasize that pathologists should be reminded of lymphoma as a differential diagnosis of spindle cell tumors.
