Infiltration of Bilateral Optic Nerves in Burkitt Lymphoma: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is one of the highly aggressive non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphomas. The optic nerve can be affected in case of isolated lymphoma or together with the central nervous system (CNS) and systemic lymphoma. We report a rare case of involvement of bilateral optic nerves in BL. A 31-year-old lady who was diagnosed with BL presented with severe intermittent headache and vomiting with blurring of vision in both eyes for one week. Visual acuity on presentation was 6/9 in the right eye and 6/24 in the left eye, with a reduction of the left eye optic nerve functions. Fundoscopy showed swollen optic disc in the right eye and temporal pallor disc in the left. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and orbit showed increased leptomeningeal enhancement in the right frontal and temporal lobes and the right optic nerve. Lumbar puncture revealed high opening pressure (50 cmH
