Primary pituitary stalk mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma: a case report and literature review.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Primary extranodal mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma in the sellar region is a rare indolent B-cell lymphoma. Case presentation: A newly diagnosed patient with MALT lymphoma originating from the pituitary stalk is reported. A space-occupying lesion in the sellar region was found in a 24 year-old man who had no clinical symptoms except for those relating to a sex hormone disorder (rising estrogen and falling androgen) identified during a pre-employment physical examination. MALT lymphoma was diagnosed pathologically. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy were proposed after surgery. However, the patient selected androgen replacement therapy only rather than chemoradiotherapy. Over the next 3 months, no visual disturbance, headache, cranial nerve abnormality, or other symptoms occurred. Conclusion: Primary sellar region MALT lymphoma is an extremely rare disease. The differential diagnosis of sellar and parasellar masses should include primary sellar region MALT lymphoma. Early detection and treatment of this lymphoma can effectively improve the prognosis.
