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

aimTo investigate how t(11;18)(q21;q21)-positive gastrointestinal MALT lymphomas relate to other marginal zone lymphomas with respect to the somatic mutation pattern of the V(H) genes and the expression of the marker CD27.

methodsThe V(H) gene of 7 t(11;18)(q21;q21)-positive gastrointestinal MALT lymphomas was amplified by PCR using family specific V(H) primers and a consensus J(H) primer. PCR products were sequenced and mutation analysis of the CDR and the FR regions was performed. All cases were immunostained for CD27.

resultsOne case showed unmutated V(H) genes while the others showed mutated V(H) genes with mutation frequencies ranging from 1.3 to 14.7% and with evidence of antigen selection in 2 cases. These data suggest that the translocation t(11;18)(q21;q21) can target either B-cells at different stages of differentiation or naive B-cells that retain the capacity to differentiate upon antigen stimulation. All cases but one displayed weak to strong CD27 expression which did not correlate with the V(H) gene mutation status.

conclusiont(11;18)(q21;q21)-positive gastrointestinal MALT lymphomas are heterogeneous with respect to the V(H) mutation status and CD27 is not a marker of somatically mutated B-cells.
