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

Recently diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCLs) was reported to be subdivided into germinal center B-cell-like (GCB) and activated B-cell-like (ABC) subgroups by using cDNA microarray and immunohistochemical markers. Tissue microarray blocks were created from 51 nodal DLBCLs with control tissue. Immunohistochemical staining for the above markers were performed. The median follow-up period was 26 months. Nodal DLBCLs were subclassified into GCB [CD10+ or CD10-/Bcl-6+/MUM1-, n=17 (33%)] and non-GC subgroups [CD10-/Bcl-6- or CD10-/Bcl-6+/MUM1+, n=35 (67%)], and were alternatively subclassified into pattern A [+ for GCB marker only, n=12 (23%)], B [Co-positive for both markers, n=13 (33%)], C [+ for activation marker only, n=18 (35%)], and D [- for both markers, n=9 (17%)]. Upon survival analysis, the GCB groups showed a relatively better survival than non-GC groups (p=0.0748). Also, pattern C (p=0.0055) and CD138+ (p=0.0008) patients had significantly lower survival rates. By multivariate analysis, CD138 expression alone was considered as an independent risk factor (p=0.031). In summary, our results add to the registration of prognostic implications for previously reported DLBCL subgroups. CD138 may play an important role as a poor prognostic marker. By using immunohistochemistry, a prognostically important subclassification of DLBCLs is possible.
