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

Rituximab has improved the prognosis of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, but a high proportion of patients with advanced disease will relapse or will fail to achieve a remission with front-line treatment. Salvage chemotherapy, followed by high-dose chemotherapy or radiation therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation, remains the best treatment option for such patients, especially those who retain chemosensitivity. Allogeneic transplantation is under investigation in this setting, often as a treatment for relapse after autologous transplantation. Treatment-related mortality due to graft-versus-host disease, preparative regimen toxicity, and poor immune recovery often limits its benefits. This article reviews the role of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the treatment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, the incorporation of rituximab, and avenues of clinical investigation in this rapidly evolving field.
