A Rare Case of Severe Facial Disfiguration Due to Extranodal NK/T-Cell Lymphoma.
Article in Journal of asthma and allergy, 2025. 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: Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKTCL-NT) is a rare, highly invasive Epstein-Barr virus associated hematological malignant tumor with an unfavorable prognosis. Although ENKTCL-NT has been previously reported, no relevant article has provided an intuitive, progressive series of schematic illustrations of the rapid progression of facial ulcers. Objective: This article reports a serious case of ENKTCL-NT that involved the entire process from onset to death. Case Summary: A 67-year-old man suffered a facial lesion started at the right ala nasi. The wound continued to spread uncontrollably to the nasion and the nasolabial groove. Subsequently, he used an unauthorized external application of herbal medicine, which unfortunately resulted in further expansion of the wound, encompassing the area from the right eyelid to the left inner canthus, extending up to the eyebrow arch, down to the right ala nasi, and deep into the nasal bone over six months. Histopathological analysis of the two biopsies revealed inflammatory necrotic granulation tissue. Conclusion: Nasal extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma presenting with non-specific symptoms could easily lead to misdiagnosis. It progresses quickly, while adequate, repeated, and multiple spot biopsies for histopathologic examination help confirm the diagnosis.
