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

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is said to infect more than 90% of humans worldwide with latent infection for life. A recognized carcinogen, EBV is linked to malignant lymphoma (ML) subtypes of Burkitt's lymphoma (BL), plasmablastic lymphoma, diffuse large cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). We report the association of EBV with ML in a segment of our patient population. Paraffin blocks from the archives of ABUTH, Zaria were used to construct tissue microarray sections stained using 30 monoclonal antibodies for common Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma/ Hodgkin's lymphoma antigen and chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH) for EBV-encoded RNA were done. Fewer associations of ML with EBV were found than reported from elsewhere in Africa.
