A case of renal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma concurrent with disseminated muscle involvement.
Article in BMC nephrology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundRenal involvement in the diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is rare and usually occurs as part of systemic disease. Muscle infiltration is even less common and can mimic inflammatory or obstructive conditions. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a 58-year-old male with right flank pain, myalgia, oliguria, and weight loss. Initial evaluation suggested obstructive nephropathy due to ureteral stones, but renal function did not improve after stone removal. Urine cytology revealed atypical lymphoid cells positive for PAX-5.
conclusionThis case highlights an unusual presentation of secondary renal DLBCL with diffuse muscle involvement, mimicking obstructive acute kidney injury (AKI). The disease should be considered in atypical AKI presentations. Despite systemic treatment response, renal prognosis may be poor in advanced disease.
