Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma Misdiagnosed as Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Report of a Rare Case.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Non-Hodgkin lymphomas are a diverse group of lymphoproliferative disorders rising from the lymphocytes with a broad spectrum of histological characteristics and clinical manifestations that often complicate accurate diagnosis. Autoantibodies have been observed at higher frequencies in lymphoproliferative diseases, yet the precise role of the immune system and the underlying causative factors remain enigmatic. Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), an aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma variant, commonly presents in a manner akin to other aggressive lymphomas, featuring swift progression of peripheral and/or retroperitoneal adenopathy, accompanied by systemic symptoms like fever, night sweats, and weight loss. This case report delves into a histologically verified instance of ALCL, which strikingly emulates systemic lupus erythematosus. This report's objective is to underscore the concept that lymphoma can manifest clinical or biological features reminiscent of autoimmunity.
