Primary Calvarial Lymphoma: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Calvarial lymphoma is radiologically similar in many respects to meningiomas, solid fibrous tumours, osteomyelitis, and metastatic carcinomas. Even though it is an extremely rare phenomenon, the initial suspicion and detection of calvarial lymphoma are paramount to establishing a correct diagnosis which helps to determine an appropriate management strategy. We present an illustrative rare case of primary calvarial lymphoma along with a literature review focusing on the best management strategy for this rare entity. A 45-year-old female presented to our center in March 2022. She had a history of forehead swelling, which was progressively increasing in size over time. The metastatic workup and bone marrow biopsy were negative. Initially, extensive surgery was planned to resect the lesion, but after a discussion with the multidisciplinary team, a biopsy of the lesion was taken, which revealed a large B-cell lymphoma. It is prudent to consider calvarial lymphoma in the differential diagnosis of a progressively growing skull lesion, which may obviate the need for large resective surgery. A biopsy plus chemoradiation may be all that is required.
