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

Colorectal lymphomas of primary origin are rare neoplasms accounting for 3% of all lymphomas involving the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, and of that 3%, 0.1-0.5% involve the colorectal region. Among the types of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas involving the GI tract, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type. While extranodal involvement of DLBCL in the GI is common, DLBCL of the colon with Epstein-Barr virus positivity is a rare entity with only a few cases reported in the literature. Here, we present a rare case of a 53-year-old female with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) who presented with generalized abdominal pain, weight loss, night sweats, and fevers. A computed tomography scan of the abdomen and pelvis showed a mass on the right side of the colon with associated retroperitoneal and right inguinal lymphadenopathy. She later underwent a colonoscopy with a biopsy. Histopathology showed DLBCL of the ascending colon and chemotherapy was initiated.
