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

Neurolymphomatosis (NL) is a rare manifestation of hematologic malignancies, characterized by a neoplastic infiltration of the peripheral nervous system and cranial nerves (CNs). Non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHLs) account for 90% of NL cases, while acute leukemia represents 10% of the cases. NL can occur as the first manifestation of a malignancy (primary), or as a relapse or progression of a previously treated disease (secondary). Herein, we report a unique case of NL involving the left orbit and CNs in a 74-year-old female with primary central nervous system (CNS) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Our patient developed secondary neurolymphomatosis involving the left orbit and CNs II, III, V, and VI, supported by clinical, radiologic, and histologic findings. The lacrimal gland enhancement was histopathologically proven to be caused by the direct spread of CNS DLBCL to the lacrimal nerve, a branch of CN V, identifying NL as one of the conditions that can affect this organ. The lacrimal gland could be considered as a more accessible biopsy site when the involvement of CN V is suspected.
