Isolated primary CNS lymphoma after liver transplantation for autoimmune hepatitis: a case report.
Article in BMC neurology, 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
Post-transplantation primary central nervous system lymphoma (PT-PCNSL) is a rare neoplasm that occurs in immunocompromised patients. It can manifest months or years after transplantation, presenting with various neurological symptoms. A 64-year-old woman, who had received a liver transplant due to autoimmune hepatitis, presented with generalized weakness, headache, and confusion. Further investigation revealed multiple ring-enhancing lesions in the right frontal and temporoparietal regions on brain MRI. A brain biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of PT-PCNSL. This case underscores the importance of considering PT-PCNSL in the differential diagnosis of contrast-enhancing brain lesions in post-transplant patients. Timely recognition of PT-PCNSL is crucial for appropriate management and improved outcomes. To the best of our knowledge, this report describes the first instance of isolated CNS lymphoma in a liver transplant recipient, due to autoimmune hepatitis, successfully brought to complete remission with a rituximab-methotrexate regimen.
