Case report: When infection lurks behind malignancy: a unique case of primary bone lymphoma mimicking infectious process in the spine.
Article in Frontiers in nuclear medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Primary bone lymphoma of the spine (PBL) is a rare entity that may be misdiagnosed due to its atypical location and clinical and imaging features mimicking certain pathologies as infectious processes, which complicates and delays diagnosis. Our case reports a patient in her sixties who had been suffering from chronic low back pain for a year, and had gradually started to develop cruralgia. She underwent a blood sample, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron emission tomography (
