A case report of lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma with spherocytosis.

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
This article presents a case of a rare lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL) complicated by spherocytosis in a 74-year-old male. The patient reported progressive fatigue and anemia and had a medical history of type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and cerebral infarction. Laboratory tests indicated moderate anemia (hemoglobin 80 g/L) and a monoclonal increase in serum IgG. A bone marrow biopsy combined with immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis of lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (IgG-κ type, MYD88 L265P negative). A peripheral blood smear revealed an increase in spherocytes, a positive acidified glycerolysis test (AGLT50), abnormal erythrocyte osmotic fragility, and a negative direct antiglobulin test. Genetic screening for hereditary erythrocyte diseases showed no pathogenic variations. The patient's condition stabilized following targeted therapy with zanubrutinib and rituximab (ZR regimen). This case underscores the complexity of diagnosing dual hematological anomalies, highlights the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration, and seeks to explore the potential pathophysiological link between LPL and spherocytosis, offering a reference for diagnosis and treatment in similar clinical scenarios.
