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

This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of gemcitabine-based combination regimen in patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). Between May 2007 and August 2011, 26 consecutive patients with PTCL were enrolled in this study. Of these 26 patients, histology was extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type in 14 (53.9 %), peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified in nine (34.6 %), anaplastic large cell lymphoma, ALK negative in three (11.5 %). The majority of patients had newly diagnosed (65.4 %) and advanced (80.8 %) diseases. Treatment regimen was DIMG (dexamethasone, ifosfamide, methotrexate, and gemcitabine) given to the first 6 patients, and GDP (gemcitabine, dexamethasone, and cisplatin) given to the remaining 20 patients. The median follow-up time was 25 (range 7-60) months. The overall response rate was 88.5 %. Twelve (46.2 %) patients achieved complete remission, 11 (42.3 %) patients achieved partial remission, and 1 (3.8 %) patient had stable disease (SD), two (7.7 %) patients had progressive diseases. The 1- and 2-year progression-free survival rates were 58.7 and 45.9 %, while 1- and 2-year overall survival rates for all patients were 80.6 and 63.7 %, respectively. Adverse events included grade 3 or 4 neutropenia (35.0 %) and thrombocytopenia (15.0 %) from patients treated with GDP. Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia were 100.0 and 66.7 %, respectively, for patients who received DIMG regimen. Our study has demonstrated that the gemcitabine-based combination regimen, especially GDP regimen, is safe and well tolerated with promising clinical activity in patients with PTCLs.
