Epstein-Barr virus-related diffuse large B-cell lymphoma type methotrexate-associated lymphoproliferative disorders presenting in the adrenal gland.
Article in IJU case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Introduction: Methotrexate-associated lymphoproliferative disorders appear during treatment with methotrexate as an immunosuppressive drug. However, the mechanism and frequency are still unknown, and the treatment is undefined. Case presentation: A 76-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital with back pain, and magnetic resonance imaging showed a tumor in the right adrenal region. She had received methotrexate for rheumatoid arthritis. Enhanced computed tomography showed a tumor of 90 mm in diameter on the dorsal side of the liver abutting to the inferior vena cava. The preoperative diagnosis was a hepatic invasion of right adrenocortical carcinoma and right adrenalectomy was performed. The histopathological diagnosis was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The final diagnosis was methotrexate-associated lymphoproliferative disorders. Conclusion: It is important to consider methotrexate-associated lymphoproliferative disorders before surgery when neoplastic lesions are found in patients taking methotrexate.
