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

Stage IV marginal zone B-cell lymphomas (MZL) are detected in more than 25% of lymphoma patients. In this study, we conducted retrospective analyses of specific cases of stage IV MZL in order to assess their clinical features, as well as the treatments and prognoses of these cases. A total of 94 patients with histological diagnosis of stage IV-MZL from 17 different institutions in Korea were included. Multiple-mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT)-organs-involved MZL (M-MZL) was detected in 34 patients (36.2%). Bone-marrow-involved stage IV MZL (BM-MZL) was detected in 33 patients (35.1%). Median time to progression (TTP) was 2.4years (95% CI, 1.9-2.9). Five- and 10-year overall survival rates were 84.5% and 79.8%, respectively. Patients with lymph node involvement in stage IV MZL appeared to have worse prognoses in TTP (P=0.015). Thirty-one patients were treated with a regimen including rituximab (CTx-R[+]), and 31 with a regimen that did not include rituximab (CTx-R[-]). The CTx-R(+) group showed better responses than the CTx-R(-) group (83.9%versus 54.8%, P=0.026). However, no differences in TTP duration were detected (P=0.113). Stage IV MZL tend to follow an indolent disease course. Therefore, lymph node involvement is a more valuable prognostic factor for TTP. Rituximab appears to contribute to better responses, but not in cases of TTP.
