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

Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) are involved in the regulation of immune response to infection and in malignant transformation. Several HLA alleles are associated with immunological or malignant diseases. The aim of the present study was to evaluate a potential association of HLA class I and II alleles with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) in immunocompetent patients. We therefore analyzed particular HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-DRB1 alleles in 82 PCNSL patients and compared the data to those in 327 population controls. No significant difference between these two groups was found using Pearson's chi(2) test. These data do not support the hypothesis that HLA alleles play a major role in the pathogenesis of PCNSL.
