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's lymphoma accounting for approximately one-third of all cases. DLBCL can present as a lymph node or extranodal tumor. Cavernous sinus (CS) is a small but complex structure in which various arteries, sympathetic plexuses, and cranial nerves are passing through. Cavernous sinus syndrome (CSS) results from any disease process that affects CS including tumor, vascular disease, infection, or inflammation. Herein, we report a case of extranodal DLBCL diagnosed by skin biopsy presenting as CSS. A 58-year-old male presented with a 3-week-old, gradually growing subcutaneous nodule on the left upper lip. He also suffered from ptosis, ophthalmoplegia, diplopia, and headache confined to the right side for 3 months. Histopathologic examination of the left upper lip showed dense dermal infiltration of atypical large tumor cells resembling centroblasts and immunoblasts. Immunohistochemistry studies revealed that the tumor cells were positive for CD20, BCL2, BCL6, MUM1, and MYC. After additional radiologic evaluation with positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT), brain magnetic resonance imaging, and orbital CT, he was finally diagnosed with extranodal DLBCL involving the right CS, oculomotor muscles, and left upper lip.
