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

To identify the clinical features of lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic syndrome (LAHS), we retrospectively analyzed the clinical characteristics, laboratory findings and survival data of 16 LAHS patients from 69 adult hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) patients. The results showed that the most common clinical manifestations and laboratory parameters were fever (100%), ferritin ≥ 500 g/L (100%), peripheral cytopenia in two or more lineages (100%), fibrinogen (Fbg) < 1.5 g/L (93.8%) and splenomegaly (81.3%) in LAHS patients. The percentages of patients with Fbg < 1.5 g/L, PLT < 40 × 10(9)/L and LDH ≥ 1,000 U/L in the LAHS group were significantly higher than those in non-LAHS patients (P = 0.010, 0.000, and 0.001, respectively). Survival analysis showed that HLH patients with rheumatological reasons had better prognosis (OS; median not reached), followed by patients in the infection group (350 days) and those with unexplained causes (140 days). LAHS had the worst prognosis (only 37 days). The symptoms of LAHS patients are usually confused with other HPS. Patients with LAHS had higher probabilities to have Fbg < 1.5 g/L, PLT < 40 × 10(9)/L, LDH ≥ 1,000 U/L and poor prognosis, so early diagnosis and systemic treatments are required.
