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

Fifty-eight adolescent patients with relapsed or primary refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma underwent high-dose chemotherapy (HDC) and autologous SCT (ASCT). The median age at ASCT was 17 years (range 14-21). The disease had relapsed in 24 patients (41%) and was refractory to initial chemotherapy in 34 (59%). ESHAP salvage chemotherapy before ASCT resulted in 88% response. After ASCT, complete remission (CR; including CR-unconfirmed) was seen in 41 patients (71%) and partial remission in 7 (12%). The overall response rate was 83%. One patient did not respond and nine (15%) had progressive disease. Three more patients achieved CR after consolidative radiation post-ASCT. There was no transplant-related mortality. At a median follow-up of 43 months from ASCT, 31 patients (53%) are alive in CR, 5 (9%) are alive with disease and 22 (38%) have died (21 from disease and 1 unrelated). The actuarial probabilities of event-free and overall (OS) survival are 45 and 55% at 11 years. The only negative prognostic factor for OS was the presence of B symptom at relapse or progression (11-year OS 27 vs 60%, P=0.003).
