Review in Current hematologic malignancy reports, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03576378 (A Phase Ib/II Trial of Combined SGN-35), which is not on this map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

Abstract

In recent decades, the prognosis of Hodgkin lymphoma has been substantially improved, but these successes have been restricted to younger patients and could not be translated into a major benefit for older patients, especially those with advanced-stage disease. Major problems in treating older patients include a different biology, frailty, comorbidities, and poorer tolerance of therapy. Additionally, these patients are often excluded from randomized trials, so an evidence-based standard of care is lacking. Importantly, the proportion of older patients with HL will increase over the next 50 years. Currently, ABVD (Adriamycin [doxorubicin], bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine) is considered to be the gold standard, even though it has some toxicity in older patients and prospective data are not available. Thus, further studies are required, including the assessment of comorbidities and the incorporation of new drugs such as immunomodulatory agents, antibody-drug conjugates, mTOR inhibitors, or histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors.
