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

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type of immunoblastic lymphoma associated with AIDS, with the stomach being the most frequent extranodal site of involvement. Despite the widespread use of combined antiretroviral therapy (cART), the incidence of systemic lymphomas remains relatively high. These lymphomas often present in the early stages of AIDS as high-grade malignancies. We report the case of a man in his early 30s who initially presented with chronic cough and weight loss, diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis and found to be HIV-positive. Within a few months, he returned with persistent abdominal pain and progressive weight loss. Imaging revealed a gastric ulcer, and biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of DLBCL. Although cART is now available and started early upon an HIV diagnosis, vigilant surveillance, early diagnosis, and prompt initiation of chemotherapy are critical for achieving an adequate response and remission.
