Primary central nervous system lymphoma of the third ventricle with intra-tumoral hemorrhage: A case report and literature review.

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 central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare brain tumor that most commonly arises in the cerebral white matter, basal ganglia, peri-ventricle or corpus callosum. Confinement of PCNSL to the third ventricle is extremely rare, and seldom presents with intratumoral hemorrhage (ITH). The present study described the case of a 75-year-old woman who presented with obstructive hydrocephalus due to third-ventricle PCNSL. On magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the tumor presented ITH on T2*-weighted images and a highly elevated regional cerebral blood volume on dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced MRI (DSC-MRI). Due to the high elevation of the regional cerebral blood volume, high-grade glioma was suspected as a preoperative diagnosis. The patient underwent endoscopic tumor biopsy and third ventricle PCNSL was successfully diagnosed. The patient achieved good prognosis at an early stage after the start of treatment initiation. There are many differential considerations for a third-ventricle tumor, and DSC-MRI can help the differential diagnosis of these tumors. Furthermore, the presence of ITH can lead to the inaccurate estimation of regional cerebral blood volume values. Overall, silent or microhemorrhage in PCNSL may be underestimated, and clinicians should therefore carefully evaluate tumor vascularity by MRI.
