Plasmablastic Lymphoma Presenting as Extensive Peritoneal and Retroperitoneal Nodules in an HIV-Positive Patient.
Article in Journal of investigative medicine high impact case reports. 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
Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) is a rare but aggressive subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The diagnosis of PBL is challenging as its features overlap with lymphoma and myeloma. The most common presentation involves the oral cavity/jaw in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients. It has also been reported in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, lymph nodes, and soft tissues. Usually, if PBL involves the GI tract, it presents as a gut tumor mass. In this report, we present an HIV-positive patient with PBL presenting with multiple peritoneal nodules. To our knowledge, this is the first case of PBL presenting as multiple peritoneal and retroperitoneal nodules in an HIV-positive patient. This case emphasizes the rare presentation of a rare malignancy, difficulties in establishing a diagnosis, and the importance of proper and timely management.
