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

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL). It often involves the gastrointestinal tract, head and neck, and skin, but virtually any tissue or organ can be affected. The primary NHL of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses are extremely rare, causing diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties. We present the case of a 49-year-old woman with a 4-week history of diplopia and right superior eyelid swelling. Clinical, radiological, and histological examination led to the diagnosis of DLBCL of the right frontal sinus with anterior invasion of subcutaneous soft tissues and posterior intracranial involvement of the frontal region. She underwent three cycles of MATRIX chemotherapy, three cycles of R-DA-EPOCH, and CAR-T therapy. Unfortunately, treatments were unsuccessful and the patient died 11 months after diagnosis. In conclusion, an early diagnosis of DLBCL of the frontal sinus is difficult as it is often confused with other nasal pathologies. This causes a delay in treatment.
