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

The identification of immunoglobulin protein in routinely fixed and paraffin-embedded sections using antibodies combined with immunoperoxidase or similar techniques of detection is often problematic. We developed an in situ hybridization methodology for the identification of light-chain mRNA that is applicable to formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues, using either radiolabeled or biotinylated oligonucleotide probes based on the kappa and lambda light-chain gene-constant regions. Reactive plasma cells can be consistently identified in reactive lymphoid tissues, and a monotypic pattern of light-chain mRNA restriction was seen in each of eight cases of multiple myeloma/plasmacytoma. Immunoblasts and germinal center cells also are labeled in reactive lymphoid tissues. Using 355-labeled probes, 29 of 93 cases (30%) of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas had detectable light-chain mRNA, while 19% of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas were positive using biotinylated probes.
