A case of uveoscleral mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma with secondary angle-closure glaucoma.
Article in BMC ophthalmology, 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
BACKGROUND/
aimMucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphomas occur in not only the ocular adnexa, but rarely in the sclera or uvea. Histopathological confirmation contributes to a better understanding of the pathogenesis and treatment. We report a case of uveoscleral MALT lymphoma with angle-closure glaucoma. CASE REPORT: A 73-year-old man was referred to our hospital for a detailed examination of a choroidal mass oculus sinister (OS). At the initial examination, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.4 OS, intraocular pressure was 37 mmHg OS, the left eye had a narrow angle with anterior chamber inflammation. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed marked choroidal elevation. Anterior segment OCT showed tumor invasion into the inferior angle and ultrasound B-mode echography demonstrated choroidal thickening and a banded hypoechoic area posterior to the eye. Magnetic resonance imaging showed isointensity in the tumor on heterogeneous enhancement on gadolinium contrast-T1WI. A tumor biopsy of the left sclera was performed one month after the initial visit. Based on pathological findings, he was diagnosed with uveoscleral MALT lymphoma. Two months after the initial visit, left eye irradiation was performed. Nine months after the initial visit, the tumor was in remission with open angle.
conclusionAngle-closure glaucoma caused by the uveoscleral MALT lymphoma was treated with radiotherapy, leading to IOP normalization as well as tumor remission.
