Clinical Utility of 18F-FDG PET/CT in the Assessment of Mantle Cell Lymphoma With Intraorbital Involvement: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma with heterogeneous clinical presentations in which orbital involvement is uncommon. We present the case of a 66-year-old woman with progressive facial swelling, disseminated cutaneous lesions, and blurred vision in the left eye. A skin biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of MCL. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography demonstrated cervical lymphadenopathy and periocular masses. A fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) study revealed increased metabolic uptake in an intraconal lesion within the left orbit in close relationship with the globe and the optic nerve, as well as nodal and extranodal involvement in multiple regions, suggesting intraorbital extranodal extension of MCL. This case highlights the potential value of 18F-FDG PET/CT in identifying intraorbital involvement and providing additional information for staging and therapeutic planning. Evidence regarding the role of 18F-FDG PET/CT in orbital manifestations of MCL remains limited, and additional studies are needed to better define its clinical utility in this setting.
