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

Composite lymphomas are rare associations of two distinct lymphoma types at the same anatomical site. Reporting of such cases is important because they pose major biologic, diagnostic, and therapeutic dilemmas. In this study, we describe the third reported case of mantle cell and follicular lymphoma. We performed accurate immunohistochemical and molecular studies to define the mono- vs biclonal nature of this neoplasm. We used both manual and LASER-capture microdissection combined to multiple molecular approaches for clonality determination, including detection of heavy and light chain recombination, as well as presence of kappa/Kde recombination and sequence analysis. By immunohistochemistry and FISH, we confirmed the presence of two distinct lymphoma types characterized by specific translocations [namely, t(11;14) and t(14;18)], while we demonstrated two distinct and not clonally related cell populations by molecular techniques. The light chain approach, and particularly the kappa and kappa/Kde recombination detection, proved very useful for solving the clonality issue.
