Primary Cerebral Lymphoma With Isolated Vitreoretinal and Cerebral Recurrences Without Meningeosis: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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 central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a diffuse, large B-cell lymphoma affecting the brain, spinal cord, leptomeninges, or eyes. A patient with a recurrence of a previous PCNSL manifesting as an isolated vitreoretinal disease without central nervous system (CNS) involvement and a second cerebral recurrence without vitreoretinal involvement has not yet been reported. The patient is an 86-year-old man with PCNSL of the left cerebellum diagnosed at the age of 82 years and treated with suboccipital trepanation and resection of the lesion followed by chemotherapy. At the age of 84, he suffered a first recurrence, which manifested as vitreoretinal lymphoma on the right and later also on the left eye, without CNS involvement. The recurrence was treated by vitrectomy on both sides. At the age of 86, the patient suffered a second recurrence, which manifested as infratentorial lesions treated by radiotherapy. He was discharged with dexamethasone, entecavir, valacyclovir, amphotericin-B, candesartan, tramadol, trazodone, and pantoprazole. This case demonstrates that PCNSL can recur with isolated secondary ophthalmologic lymphoma and a second time with isolated cerebral lymphoma. Although glucocorticoids, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy can be highly effective, the long-term outcomes of patients with PCNSL are not as favorable.
