Non-resolving pneumonia: primary pulmonary MALT lymphoma.

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
Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is an uncommon extranodal low-grade B-cell lymphoma. Pulmonary MALT lymphomas originate from bronchial MALT and are also referred to as bronchial-associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas. MALT lymphomas of the lung are slow-growing tumours and usually present as asymptomatic chronic alveolar opacities visible on chest radiographs or with non-specific pulmonary symptoms. Here we described a case of a male patient in his early 50s with cough and chest pain for 4 years. His CT chest scan showed consolidation in the lingula and left lower lobe. Histopathology of the specimen obtained from cryobiopsy of the lung lesion showed a dense monomorphic lymphoid infiltrate, and immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis of MALT lymphoma. The prognosis of pulmonary MALT lymphomas is good with >80% 5-year survival rates. This case highlights that MALT lymphoma should be considered as a differential diagnosis while evaluating cases with non-resolving consolidation.
