Incidental Splenic Marginal Zone Lymphoma With Extreme Macrocytosis After Hydroxyurea Use: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a low-grade mature B-cell lymphoma that typically presents in the form of splenomegaly and lymphocytosis. The diagnosis is traditionally made through splenic histology, the presence of circulating villous lymphocytes, or bone marrow biopsy. Its treatment can be in the form of chemotherapy, such as rituximab, or active surveillance. This case presentation discusses a 76-year-old female with a long history of hydroxyurea use for an unknown reason presenting with atypical symptoms requiring bone marrow biopsy to diagnose SMZL. This unique case demonstrates the importance of further research and studies into atypical SMZL presentations and hydroxyurea's potential in precipitating secondary malignancies.
