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

The objective of this study was to investigate the expression and significance of the transforming growth factor β type II receptor (TGFβRII) in diffuse large B cell lymphoma. All patients were enrolled at the First Affiliated Hospital of Liaoning Medical University between 2001 and 2007. The median follow-up period was 53.3 months. Of the 338 patients studied, 131 (38.76 %) had TGFβRII positive expression on immunohistochemistry. The 5 year survival rate was significantly higher in patients with TGFβRII expression than in those without TGFβRII expression (40.3 vs. 31.6 %, P = 0.041). Multivariate analysis identified TGFβRII expression as an independent predictive parameter for survival, in addition to lactate dehydrogenase, clinical stage, and histologic subtype. TGFβRII expression may be considered a new prognostic factor of diffuse large B cell lymphoma.
