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

Receptor tyrosine kinases MET and RON (MST1R) form non-covalent complexes on the cell surface, a critical step in tumor progression. A recent study suggested a prognostic role for MET expression in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The aim of this study was to examine the impact of MET and RON expression in uniformly treated DLBCL patients. The expression of MET and RON was retrospectively examined by immunohistochemistry in 120 DLBCL patients treated with rituximab combined with a CHOP regimen (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone). The median follow-up time was 42.5 months (range, 1-89 months). Thirty-two (26%) and 30 patients (25%) expressed MET or RON, respectively. Seventy-five patients (62.5%) were negative for both MET and RON (MET(-) RON(-) ). MET negativity was associated with worse overall survival (P = 0.029). In multivariate analysis, negativity for both MET and RON (MET(-) RON(-) ) was strongly associated with inferior overall survival (P = 0.008). Interestingly, the MET(-) RON(-) phenotype retained its prognostic impact after subgroup analysis according to the international prognostic index or by the cell of origin by immunohistochemical algorithm by Choi et al. This study suggests that the MET(-) RON(-) phenotype is an independent prognostic factor in DLBCL patients receiving R-CHOP, and may identify a subgroup of DLBCL patients who require more intensive therapy.
