Efficacy of Contrast-Enhanced Endoscopic Ultrasonography for the Differentiation of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma: A Single-Center Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundContrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasound (CE-EUS) is a promising diagnostic modality for differentiating malignant and benign lymph nodes. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic capability of CE-EUS in differentiating indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) from aggressive NHL.
methodsPatients who underwent CE-EUS and endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) for lymphadenopathy and were diagnosed with NHL were included in this study. Echo features on B-mode endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and vascular and enhancement patterns on CE-EUS were qualitatively evaluated. The enhancement intensity of the lymphadenopathy on CE-EUS over 60 s was also quantitatively evaluated using time-intensity curve (TIC) analysis.
resultsA total of 62 patients who were diagnosed with NHL were enrolled in this study. Regarding qualitative evaluation using B-mode EUS, there were no significant differences in the echo features between aggressive NHL and indolent NHL. With regard to qualitative evaluation using CE-EUS, aggressive NHL showed a heterogeneous enhancement pattern that is significantly more frequent than indolent NHL (95% confidence interval: 0.57 to 0.79,
conclusionsCE-EUS before EUS-FNA for mediastinal or abdominal lymphadenopathy may be useful for improving the diagnostic capability of differentiating between indolent NHL and aggressive NHL (clinical trial registration number: UMIN000047907).
