A Rare Presentation of Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma as a Gastric Outlet Obstruction With Complete Resolution After Chemotherapy.

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
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), accounting for approximately one-third of all cases. We report a case of DLBCL presenting as gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) with complete resolution of obstruction after chemotherapy without any surgical intervention. A 58-year-old man presented with an inability to tolerate oral intake, bilious vomiting, abdominal discomfort, and unintentional weight loss. Computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen and pelvis revealed large infiltrating retroperitoneal and mesenteric masses with extensive adenopathy. Conservative management of GOO was initiated, including gastric decompression using a nasogastric tube and intravenous fluid hydration. A para-aortic lymph node biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of DLBCL. Following the first cycle of chemotherapy, the patient showed remarkable improvement. A repeat CT scan of the abdomen demonstrated complete resolution of GOO. Gastric outlet obstruction secondary to DLBCL is a rare complication. Complete resolution of GOO with radiological evidence following chemotherapy alone, without surgical intervention, is rarely reported.
