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

Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) is recognized as a unique clinicopathological entity associated with human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), and it occurs almost exclusively in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals. In the majority of PEL cases, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been found in the tumor cells as well. We describe here an elderly HIV seronegative female patient with PEL in the pleura and pericardium not associated with HHV-8 or EBV. Cytologic examinations of the pleural effusion revealed large lymphoma cells with immunophenotypes positive for CD8, CD10, CD19, CD20, CD22, CD24, CD45, and HLA-DR but negative for CD30 and surface immunoglobulin. Chromosome analysis showed complicated abnormalities including add(3)(q27). Immunoglobulin gene rearrangement was detected by Southern blotting; however, c-myc, Bcl-2, and Bcl-6 genes were not rearranged. The patient was treated with a modified CHOP (cyclophosphamide, hydroxydoxorubicin, oncovine, and prednisolone) regimen, and achieved remission. Recurrence of PEL in the pericardium as effusion lymphoma was found 3 months after the discontinuation of CHOP. After approximately 1 year of intermittent multiagent salvage therapy for pericardial recurrences, a treatment that resulted in a partial response, 3 cycles of monotherapy with sobuzoxane were administered. At the time of this report the patient had been free from PEL for more than 18 months without chemotherapy.
