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

A 57-year-old man was referred to our department with a mass in the sphenoid sinus. Surgical removal of the tumor was performed. However, a testicular mass was found that showed rapid growth. He had undergone inguinal orchiectomy. Five days after the urological surgery, he noticed visual disturbances and bilateral visual loss. Ophthalmological examination revealed total blindness, and magnetic resonance imaging revealed sphenoid mass growth. The patient underwent emergent removal of the tumor, and a diagnosis of malignant lymphoma was made. A final diagnosis of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) in the testis and sphenoid sinus was made. After receiving treatment with intravenous corticosteroids and chemotherapy for lymphoma, his left vision completely recovered. Although his right vision was lost, he returned to normal social activities. This is the first report in the literature on MCL developing in the sphenoid sinus presenting with bilateral blindness and ipsilateral recovery.
