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

Blastoid mantle cell lymphoma (B-MCL) is a rare and aggressive subtype of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by a high proliferation index and poor prognosis. Gastrointestinal (GI) involvement, which is common in systemic mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), rarely presents as an isolated lesion. Herein, we describe a unique case of B-MCL presenting as an isolated cecal mass. The patient experienced acute-onset abdominal pain and melena and was found to have cecal wall thickening on imaging, with regional lymphadenopathy. Colonoscopy revealed a large ulcerated polypoid lesion in the cecum, and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of B-MCL. The patient completed 4 cycles of bendamustine/rituximab regimen but was terminally extubated due to clinical deterioration. Although infrequent, MCL should be considered in the differential diagnosis of isolated GI masses. This case adds to the limited literature on B-MCL, which could potentially help with the formulation of diagnostic and treatment algorithms for this rare pathology.
