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

backgroundMucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, originates in the mucosal lining of body organs and internal cavities, including the nose, mouth, lungs, and digestive tract. The lymphoma develops when the body produces abnormal B lymphocytes. These lymphomas develop at the edge of the lymphoid tissue, called the marginal zone, and, hence, are classified as a type of marginal zone lymphomas. They are the most common type of marginal zone lymphomas although their occurrence is rare. To date, no previous cases of MALT lymphoma in the buccal fat pad have been reported. CASE SUMMARY: We report the case of a patient who presented with a mass on the frontal cheek. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a tumor in the buccal fat pad, and histopathological and immunohistochemical findings confirmed the diagnosis of MALT lymphoma. The patient had a history of

conclusionConsideration of MALT lymphoma is essential in the differential diagnosis of frontal cheek masses.
