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

Current polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods for the molecular diagnosis of B- and T-cell lymphomas by determination of clonality of immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) and T-cell receptor-gamma rearrangements and by detection of the chromosomal translocations t(14;18) and t(11;14), require several laborious and costly PCR assays for each of these diagnostic tests. We have developed a multiplex PCR assay for the simultaneous determination of B- and T-cell clonality and the detection of the chromosomal translocations t(14;18) and t(11;14) in a single reaction, using four-color fluorescence and automated high-resolution fragment analysis. The 26 primers combined in the multiplex PCR correspond to the sequences of >90% of the 69 variables and 6 join IgH genes and 100% of the T-cell receptor-gamma variables and join genes that could participate in the respective rearrangements. In addition, they detect the major and the minor breakpoint regions of the t(14;18) and the major breakpoint region of the t(11;14), and amplify the beta-globin gene as an internal control. The specificity of the multiplex PCR was confirmed by analysis of 39 T-cell lymphomas and 58 B-cell lymphomas, including 11 mantle cell lymphomas bearing the t(11;14) and 25 follicular lymphomas bearing the t(14;18), with known rearrangements and/or translocations. Fifteen samples of reactive lymphadenitis remained negative.
