Acute Presentation of Primary CNS Lymphoma Mimicking Toxoplasma in HIV Infection.
Article in Journal of community hospital internal medicine perspectives, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) accounts for up to 15% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas in HIV patients and is the second most common cause of space-occupying brain lesions in HIV patients after CNS toxoplasmosis. Differentiation of PCNL and CNS toxoplasmosis is crucial as PCNL carries a poor prognosis with survival time of 2-4 months without treatment but can be improved with prompt initiation of chemotherapy. These two entities often present clinically in a similar manner, and conventional imaging can also be a diagnostic challenge due to overlapping imaging characteristics. Thus, definitive diagnosis of PCNSL relies on histopathologic confirmation. Here, we present a case of intracranial lesion that presented acutely in the context of headache and left sided body weakness and was found to have PCNSL.
