Recurrent Marginal Zone Lymphoma with Bone Marrow Involvement Detected by ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT and Biopsy: A Diagnostic Challenge.
Article in The American journal of case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND Marginal zone lymphoma is a low-grade, B-cell, non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Bone marrow involvement (BMI) of leukemia or lymphoma can usually be displayed in fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT) with high standardized uptake values (SUV), while diffuse homogeneous ¹⁸F-FDG bone marrow uptake (BMU) in PET/CT primarily reflects hyperplastic bone marrow status. This report is of a 74-year-old man presenting with anemia and a diagnosis of recurrent marginal zone lymphoma with bone marrow involvement identified with 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging and biopsy. CASE REPORT A 64-year-old man with severe anemia and body weight loss of 7 kg in 1 month was diagnosed with marginal zone lymphoma, stage III, in July 2011. He went into complete remission in April 2012 after 6 cycles of chemotherapy, with Hb restored. Anemia and diffuse homogeneous ¹⁸F-FDG BMU in PET/CT were then noted during a routine check-up in October 2021, and recurrent disease was established through positive biopsy of subcutaneous nodules and bone marrow. Subsequent complete remission after 6 cycles of combination therapy was validated with pathologically negative BMI, the resolution of the slightly enhanced ¹⁸F-FDG BMU in PET/CT, and restored hemoglobin. CONCLUSIONS This report has highlighted the importance of follow-up for patients with lymphoma and supports the diagnostic role of ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT imaging and the pathological verification in identifying malignant involvement in bone marrow.
