Evaluation of Lymphadenopathy in Urgent Care: A Case of Hodgkin Lymphoma.
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
Lymphadenopathy is a common presentation in urgent care and primary care settings and is most often due to benign or infectious causes. However, persistent or unexplained lymphadenopathy may represent an underlying malignancy, including Hodgkin lymphoma. We present the case of a 20-year-old female patient who presented to urgent care with a two-week history of cervical and axillary lymphadenopathy without B symptoms. Initial laboratory evaluation was notable for a positive mumps IgM, suggesting an infectious etiology. However, imaging revealed multistation cervical, axillary, and mediastinal lymphadenopathy concerning for a lymphoproliferative disorder. An initial core needle biopsy of an axillary lymph node was non-diagnostic; however, due to discordance between imaging and pathology findings, a repeat biopsy was performed, which confirmed classical Hodgkin lymphoma, nodular sclerosis subtype. The patient was subsequently referred for further oncologic evaluation and treatment. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of evaluating lymphadenopathy when initial findings suggest an infectious process and emphasizes the importance of repeat biopsy when clinical suspicion for malignancy remains high.
