1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma arising from the tongue is a rare pathologic condition for which a standard treatment mode has not been established. This disease represents a low-grade lymphoma frequently found in the stomach but rarely in the lymphoid tissue of the tongue. Only six cases that have been reported could be retrieved. We present the case of a 79-year-old woman who manifested with a mass on her tongue. A biopsy of the mass confirmed a diagnosis of MALT lymphoma. Radiation therapy of 30.6 Gy in 17 fractions was performed, and a complete metabolic response was achieved.
