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

Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) with secondary bone marrow involvement is relatively common. However, isolated involvement of bone marrow in marginal zone type of NHL is atypical and rare. Here, we describe a patient of atypical marginal zone lymphoma with isolated bone marrow involvement who presented with weight loss and bicytopenia, where F-18 FDG PET/CT (fluorine-18-labeled fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with computed tomography) imaging played a pivotal role in establishing the diagnosis when conventional imaging modalities were unremarkable. The patient was successfully treated with systemic chemotherapy (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, prednisolone) and achieved complete remission, as demonstrated by a follow-up F-18 FDG PET/CT scan.
