Primary T-cell lymphoma of the brain in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome: case report.
Article in Journal of neuro-oncology, 1997. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is now the most common noninfectious intracranial mass lesion and the fourth leading cause of death. Most cases of PCNSL are B-cell in origin and are only rarely of T-cell origin. We report the first complete clinical description of T-cell PCNSL in a patient with AIDS. This patient underwent stereotactic biopsy of a cerebellar lesion that demonstrated T-cell lymphoma by immunohistochemical staining. The patient died from opportunistic infection after partial radiation therapy. Complete autopsy revealed no evidence of residual T-cell lymphoma. The authors compare T-cell PCNSL in patients with and without AIDS, and discuss differences between T-cell and B-cell PCNSL. In conclusion, T-cell PCNSL can occur in patients with AIDS. The tumor is often located infratentorially and appears to be radiosensitive. However, the patient's survival is short because death is usually caused by opportunistic infection rather than mass effect from lymphoma.
