Uncommon presentation of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: oral and pulmonary involvements in a young patient: a case report.

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
backgroundDiffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphomas that remains a major diagnostic challenge due to the variety of its clinical presentations. This case highlights the importance of early biopsy of oral lesions without tendency to heal to attain the diagnosis more quickly. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to focus on both oral and pulmonary involvements in a patient with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. CASE PRESENTATION: The presented case describes an Iranian 18-year-old girl with chronic cough and dyspnea referred for evaluation of the upper jaw due to bone exposure, bone loss, and soft tissue ulceration. Her medical history revealed mediastinal mass, cavitary lesion, and mediastinal lymphadenopathy. However, cytologic and immunohistochemical analysis did not show any evidence of malignancy. In this case a lymphoproliferative disease was suspected but ultimately the oral biopsy diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and chemotherapy could be started.
conclusionsSystemic conditions should be considered as a possible cause of oral lesions and a biopsy should also be performed immediately if there is any doubt concerning the nature of the lesion. Moreover, some conditions necessitate multiple biopsies to attain an accurate diagnosis.
