Spontaneous regression of secondary vitreoretinal lymphoma after diagnostic vitrectomy: case report.
Article in BMC ophthalmology, 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
purposeOur purpose is to report a patient with secondary intraocular mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) who experienced spontaneous regression after diagnostic vitrectomy.
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed the clinical and imaging features of the case. Multimodal imaging, including fundus photograph, optical coherence tomography, fundus fluorescein angiography and ultrasound scan was presented.
resultsA 71-year-old female presented with a subretinal lesion temporal to macula and scattered multifocal creamy lesions deep to retina in her left eye. Optical coherence tomography of the left eye showed multifocal nodular hyper-reflective signals between the Bruch's membrane and RPE. She had a history of gastric MALT lymphoma. Diagnostic vitrectomy was performed. IL-10 level of aqueous was 187.7pg/ml. Cytology, gene rearrangement and flow cytometry of the vitreous were inconclusive. Systemic evaluation was normal. Secondary vitreoretinal MALT lymphoma was considered. Interestingly, her subretinal lesions regressed gradually without any chemotherapy. And IL-10 level of aqueous declined to 64.3pg/ml.
conclusionsSecondary vitreoretinal MALT lymphoma is extremely rare. Spontaneous regression of intraocular lymphoma does occur.
