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

Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (EMZL) of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) commonly affects the gastrointestinal (GI) tract but rarely occurs within the colon. Colonic EMZL is a rare diagnosis accounting for 2.5% of EMZL and less than 0.5% of colon cancers. We present a unique case of asymptomatic colonic EMZL diagnosed on a routine surveillance colonoscopy. The lymphoma was confined to a single colonic polyp presenting endoscopically as a sessile polypoid lesion at the recto-sigmoid junction. The patient was successfully treated with polypectomy with no recurrence of the disease.
