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

Primary gastrointestinal lymphoma (PGIL) is a kind of relatively rare cancer and easily misdiagnosed due to its unspecific signs in digestive tract. Data including 216 patients histologically diagnosed as PGIL between January 1991 and October 2012 from The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were reviewed. This study was to investigate the clinicopathological features and prognosis, and make the comparison between the different sites of PGIL. Abdominal pain (75.9%) was the most frequent symptom and intermediate-grade lymphoma (53.7%) presented as the most common histological type. Intestine (55.1%) was the most common site involved, followed by stomach (38.5%), both intestine and stomach (6.4%). PGIL of different original site showed distinguished clinicopathological characteristics that patients in Stomach and GI group were older than Intestine group (Mean age: 54 and 53 vs. 43 years, p<0.001); diarrhea, B symptom, abdominal mass and complication occurred more in intestine group. Histologically, high-grade lymphoma (especially T-cell type) almost located in Intestine group (82.5%). Five-year overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) for all PGIL patients were 56.4% and 49.3%, respectively. Stomach group had better OS (72.3%) and EFS (48.4%) than Intestine group (43.1% and 23.6% respectively), but it lost the significance in the multivariate analysis. Univariate and multivariate analysis revealed that performance status, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level and histological type were independent prognostic factors for PGIL.
