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
We describe a rare case of discordant lymphoma characterized by the coexistence of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in the brain and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) in the colon, rectum, and bone marrow. A 63-year-old male patient with consciousness impairment and gait disturbance was admitted to our institution. Head computed tomography scan and contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging showed a mass in the right temporal lobe and rectal wall thickening. Brain biopsy revealed DLBCL, and bone marrow and rectum biopsy showed MCL. According to a polymerase chain reaction analysis of immunoglobulin heavy-chain gene rearrangements using brain and bone marrow specimens, the two lesions were clonally unrelated lymphomas. After five cycles of R-MPV (rituximab, methotrexate, procarbazine, vincristine) therapy and three cycles of R-ESHAP (rituximab, etoposide, cytarabine, cisplatin, methylprednisolone) therapy, the patient received autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using R-MEAM (rituximab, ranimustine, etoposide, cytarabine, melphalan) regimen after bridging therapy with ibrutinib. In addition, he received whole-brain irradiation at a dose of 40 Gy in 20 fractions as consolidation therapy. He did not relapse within 3 years of transplantation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of DLBCL and MCL coexistence.
