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

Approximately 10-25 % of patients with diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) at the time of diagnosis exhibit bone marrow involvement (BMI). After introduction of rituximab, immunohistochemistry (IHC) markers lost to prognostic value in DLBCL patients. However, the specimens used have mainly been diagnostic tissues, not bone marrow (BM). It would thus be useful to determine the prognostic value of specific IHC markers of pathologic BM in DLBCL patients with BMI in the rituximab era. In the present study, a total of 580 DLBCL patients were analyzed 67 of whom had BMI. CD10, Bcl-6, MUM-1, Bcl-6 and Ki-67 dyeing on pathologic BM were applied. Bcl-2 positivity was more frequent in discordant BMI (P = 0.039) and high Ki-67 expression was more frequent in concordant BMI (P = 0.016). High Ki-67 expression independently predicted poor prognosis between the negative BMI group and each of the following BMI-positive groups: entire BMI (PFS, P < 0.001; OS, P < 0.001), concordant BMI (PFS, P = 0.024; OS, P = 0.007), and discordant BMI (PFS, P = 0.033; OS, P = 0.026). We found that Ki-67 expression in pathologic BM is a novel significant prognostic parameter of worse prognosis in DLBCL patients with BMI in the rituximab era.
