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
backgroundB-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (B-LBL) is an aggressive type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that usually involves lymph nodes, skin and soft tissue. Bone marrow and peripheral blood are normally spared from involvement in the disease. B-LBL typically forms solid masses that have similar pathologic and immunophenotypic features to their liquid counterpart, B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). The presentation of B-LBL with a solitary epidural mass at the cervical spine is very rare and the optimal treatment of such cases is unknown. Most of the literature on the management of B-LBL comes from small case series, pediatric patients, or as part of retrospective data that combine B-LBL with B-ALL cases. CASE PRESENTATION: The case presented herein is a unique presentation that was treated using three modalities, namely surgical resection, radiotherapy and consolidation with systemic chemotherapy, adopted from the United Kingdom acute lymphoblastic leukemia (UKALL14) protocol.
conclusionsThe patient attained complete remission following the planned treatment and is still in remission for more than four and half years from the time of his initial diagnosis.
