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

Lymphomas of the central nervous system (CNS) are broadly classified into primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) and secondary CNS lymphoma (SCNSL). PCNSL refers to lymphoma restricted to the brain, leptomeninges, spinal cord, or eyes without evidence of it outside the CNS at primary diagnosis, while SCNSL refers to secondary CNS involvement by systemic lymphoma. The brain is the most common site of involvement and intracranial CNS lymphoma has a highly variable imaging appearance and varies according to the patient's clinical profile and immunity. This pictorial essay aims to illustrate the different facets of intracranial CNS lymphomas on neuroimaging. This enables radiologists to be familiarized with their key diagnostic features and differentiate from their differential diagnoses, leading to early diagnosis, and treatment.
