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

Primary cardiac lymphoma is a highly rare type of malignant tumor that originates from the lymphoid tissue within the heart or pericardium. Surgical treatment is the primary method for obtaining pathological results and relieving obstructions, and chemotherapy is the main method for disease control. We present a case of a 67-year-old woman diagnosed with primary cardiac lymphoma, presenting with shortness of breath and bilateral lower extremity edema after activity. Multimodality imaging results suggest a primary cardiac lymphoma, which was located in the right atrioventricular groove. Surgical resection of the mass was performed and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of primary cardiac lymphoma. Based on the genetic results, Pola-R-CHP was used for postoperative chemotherapy. Fortunately, no evidence of recurrence of primary cardiac lymphoma was showed 8 months after surgery. Surgical resection combined with chemotherapy has achieved satisfactory results in the treatment of primary cardiac lymphoma.
