Primary Large B-Cell Lymphoma of Immune-Privileged Sites of the Cerebellum: A Case Series and Review of the Literature.
Review in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. 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
Primary large B-cell lymphoma of immune-privileged sites (IP-LBCL) is a rare malignant hematological neoplasm. Involvement of the cerebellum is even rarer and its diagnosis is often difficult to make due to its non-specific clinical and radiological presentation.
methodsWe reported 3 cases of cerebellar IP-LBCL followed at our hospital and reviewed the medical literature to unravel the peculiarities of this poorly studied entity. OUTCOMES: Analyzing our cases and reviewing the literature, we could collect and study 26 cases of cerebellar IP-LBCL. To the best of our knowledge, this is the largest cohort of such patients currently published.
conclusionCerebellar IP-LBCL presents more often in adult females with cerebellum-related focal neurological signs such as ataxia, headache, and nausea. Histological confirmation is mandatory for a correct diagnosis and treatment and all cases feature diffuse large B-cell lymphoma histopathology. Compared to other encephalic IP-LBCL, cerebellar cases seem to include a higher number of cases with germinal center B-cell phenotype and better survival. These differences may be related to a different immune microenvironment and especially immunoregulation that distinguishes the cerebellum from other areas of the CNS.
