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

This case describes a rare presentation of a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified (DLBC NOS) in the gallbladder. We report the case of an 89-year-old male who initially presented with a two-week history of weakness and abdominal discomfort. We performed laparoscopic cholecystectomy for suspicion of acute cholecystitis. After the initial uneventful course, readmission occurred for persisting weakness a few weeks after surgery. Computed tomography revealed progressive retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. With new emerging neurological symptoms, taking into account the histopathological findings of the gallbladder specimen, the diagnosis of DLBCL NOS was confirmed. Due to the rapid clinical deterioration and extranodal involvement, the patient opted against further therapy. When the suspicion of cholecystitis is inconclusive, rare differential diagnoses need to be considered. This analysis may improve the understanding of the presentation and course of DLBC NOS in abdominal organs and could form the basis for a systematic review to improve diagnosis and therapy.
