Herpes Simplex Virus Necrotic Lymphadenitis Masquerading as Lymphoma.
Article in Cureus, 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
In immunocompromised patients, the rapid development of lymphadenopathy could pose a few diagnostic challenges. This is important, especially with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) which can manifest with the development of infections or may even progress with transformation into a more aggressive form of the disease. We report a case of a patient with CLL/SLL who presented with fever and worsening dyspnea as well as inguinal lymphadenopathy upon evaluation. The excisional biopsy of affected lymph nodes revealed herpes simplex virus lymphadenitis confirmed by immunohistochemical staining. Flow cytometry showed no progression to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. This case highlights the importance of considering a broad spectrum of differential diagnoses when assessing lymphadenopathy in immunocompromised patients receiving active immunosuppressive therapy.
