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

Hepatosplenic γδ T-cell lymphoma (HSTCL) is a very rare peripheral T-cell lymphoma characterized by extranodal infiltration of mature malignant post-thymic T-lymphocytes into sinusoids of the liver and spleen without lymphadenopathy and significant cytopenias. The aetiology of the disease is unknown. We describe the case of a female patient in whom HSTCL developed after delivery and who was previously without disease. Flow cytometry and liver puncture are essential for diagnosing HSTCL, especially in patients with unexplained pancytopenia and hepatosplenomegaly. Since phenotypic results can easily be misinterpreted as non-malignant, the examiner should have enough experience to recognize clonal changes of T-lymphocytes. Namely, in contrast to B-lymphocytes, T-lymphocytes do not have an efficient indicator of clonality and are recognized by flow cytometry based only on aberrant expression of commonly present antigens of T-cell and NK-cell subsets. At present, there is no known cure for HSTCL with a maximum survival up to 2 years.
