Extra- and Intracranial Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) Mimicking Meningioma: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Primary central nervous system lymphomas (PCNLSs) are malignant non-Hodgkin lymphomas solely affecting the central nervous system (CNS). Here, we present a rare case of extra- and intracranial manifestation without adjacent calvarial infiltration. We report a 67-year-old woman who presented with right leg paresis and hypoesthesia, facial hypoesthesia, focal epileptic seizures, and an indolent tumor on the left parietal scalp. MRI showed a left paramedian extra- and intracranial contrast-enhancing tumor with infiltration of the superior sagittal sinus, but without osseous infiltration on CT. The tumor was radiologically suspected to be a meningioma and resection was performed. Histological examination, however, revealed a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Thus, the patient received adjuvant treatment according to the MATRix protocol. We provide a detailed analysis of this rare case with a focus on preoperative radiological findings and differential diagnoses. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of only four published cases of DLBCL with extra- and intracranial manifestation without bone affection.
