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

In this case report, we aim to describe a rare case of recurrent diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) reportedly in remission presenting with primary anterior segment findings and use of intravitreal bevacizumab and methotrexate to treat the sequelae. The patient presented with hypopyon and neovascularization of the iris (NVI). Anterior chamber studies including flow cytometry and imaging revealed DLBCL recurrence with central nervous system (CNS) involvement. Over one month, he was treated with one intravitreal injection of bevacizumab, repeat injections of methotrexate, and systemic therapies with the resolution of ocular symptoms but persistent systemic disease. This case highlights the utility of anterior chamber paracentesis in diagnosis and intravitreal bevacizumab and methotrexate in the treatment for anterior segment manifestations of intraocular lymphoma (IOL).
