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
Primary non-Hodgkin lymphoma of the bone is quite rare, accounting for less than 2% of all lymphomas in adults. We present a unique case of chronic left heel pain in a 34-year-old pregnant woman with a remote history of lower extremity trauma. Unresponsive to conservative treatment, advanced imaging showed an infiltrative soft tissue mass involving the calcaneus and surrounding soft tissues. Biopsy of the area confirmed the diagnosis of Stage I-AE diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The patient underwent 20 localized radiation treatments to the left heel. Nine years after the diagnosis, the patient remains in remission without signs of disease recurrence. This case report demonstrates that atypical and less common causes of chronic heel pain should be considered in certain clinical scenarios, especially in those unresponsive to conservative treatment.
