Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle biopsy diagnosis of circumferentially extraluminal mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma in the transverse colon: a case report.

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
A 61-year-old man present to us with continued abdominal pain without abdominal tenderness for 1 month. Blood testing showed elevated biliary enzymes and inflammation. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) revealed thickening of the transverse colon with relatively strong enhancement but no bile duct dilatation. Colonoscopy revealed localized edema and granular mucosa in the transverse colon. Fluoroscopic endoscopy exhibited the absence of haustra. Multiple biopsies were performed, but differentiation between mild inflammation and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma was inconclusive. To establish a definitive diagnosis, transgastric endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle biopsy of the hypoechoic mass was performed. Histopathological analysis exhibited the proliferation of small-sized lymphocytes. Fluorescence in situ hybridization revealed the characteristic API2-MALT1 translocation of MALT lymphoma. We performed liver biopsy to investigate biliary enzyme elevation. Histopathology confirmed lymphocytic infiltration within Glisson's capsule. Immunohistochemistry showed positive for CD20 and negative for CD3 and CD5, signifying the infiltration of MALT lymphoma in the liver. Based on these findings, we diagnosed MALT lymphoma, Lugano classification Stage IV. We performed bendamustine-rituximab (BR)-combined therapy. After six courses of BR-combined therapy, colonoscopy revealed improvement in the lead pipe sign and CT revealed disappearance of the mass.
