Review in Current oncology reports, 2000. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Approximately 40% to 50% of cases of Hodgkin's disease occurring in Western populations are associated with the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). In these cases, EBV is found in the neoplastic elements, the Reed-Sternberg and Hodgkin's cells. EBV is probably not present in all cases, but neither have any other viruses been found in the cases that are EBV-negative. EBV may play a role in the pathogenesis of Hodgkin's disease by the activation of anti-apoptotic factors in a premalignant germinal center B-lymphocyte. Regardless of their role in etiology or pathogenesis, EBV-latent antigens may represent a target for possible immune therapy.
