Rituximab and bortezomib (RB): a new effective regimen for refractory or relapsed indolent lymphomas.
Article in Medical oncology (Northwood, London, England), 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 rituximab and Bortezomib in relapsed or refractory indolent B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Treatments consisted of rituximab 375 mg/m(2), i.v. on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of cycle 1 and on day one of cycles 2-5, bortezomib 1.6 mg/m(2), given by intravenous injection (3-s to 5-s bolus) on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of a maximum of five cycles. The primary end points were the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints included response rate (ORR; CR) and toxicities. From January 2008 to December 2010, 60 successive patients at Tianjin cancer hospital lymphoma department were enrolled in this study. All patients were recurrent or refractory indolent B cell NHL, including follicular lymphoma grades 1-2 (n = 35), small lymphocytic lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukemia (LL/CLL; n = 16) and marginal zone lymphoma (n = 9). The median follow-up time was 30 months (range 12-48). The overall response rate was 70.0 %, with a CR/CRu rate of 31.7 %. The 2-year OS and PFS of all patients were 75.0 and 41.0 %, respectively. Grade 3-4 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia occurred in 10 and 3.3 % of patients, respectively. Higher IPI and refractory disease were independently associated with worse survival and PFS. RB chemotherapy in patients with refractory or relapsed indolent B cell NHL was effective with low toxicity.
