Rare case of classic Hodgkin lymphoma in a patient with ulcerative colitis.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Primary gastrointestinal tract lymphoma (PGIL) is a rare form of presentation of gastrointestinal tract (GI) lymphomas. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and the use of thiopurines are known risk factors for its appearance. We report a male patient in his early 70s treated only with mesalamine for ulcerative colitis (UC) for the past 6 years. He was admitted due to COVID-19 and anaemia secondary to massive haematochezia. The patient underwent total colectomy with end ileostomy, with intraoperative proctoscopy. Tissue biopsy demonstrated typical features of UC; however, atypical lymphoid proliferation of the regional lymph nodes with histological and immunochemical staining results was suggestive of classic Hodgkin lymphoma, nodular sclerosis subtype. The patient was treated with adriamycin, vinblastine and dacarbazine chemotherapy initially successful after 1 session but later opted for palliative care. Due to its rarity, lymphoid neoplasms occurring in the context of IBD are poorly known.
