A Durable Response of Primary Advanced Colonic Plasmacytoma Using a Combination of Surgical Resection and Adjuvant Bortezomib: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in OncoTargets and therapy, 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
Background: Primary isolated extra-medullary plasmacytoma (EMP) is a rare entity that most commonly involves the nasopharynx or upper respiratory tract. Only 10% of cases involve the gastrointestinal tract, mainly the small intestine and the stomach. Involvement of the colon is extremely rare with less than 40 reported cases worldwide. Case Presentation: We report a case of a 57-year-old man who was presented with a 3-week history of fresh bleeding from the rectum. Colonoscopy showed a polypoidal mass arising from the ascending colon; biopsy showed clonal plasmacytosis and a primary colonic solitary EMP diagnosis was made after exclusion of multiple myeloma (MM). Accordingly, the patient underwent a right hemicolectomy, followed by 6 cycles of bortezomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone (VCD). The patient continued to be disease-free 30 months after the completion of his chemotherapy. Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of primary colonic plasmacytoma managed with surgical resection followed by an adjuvant bortezomib-based regimen with a durable response.
