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

introductionPrimary gastrointestinal non-Hodgkin lymphomas (PGINHL) are a heterogeneous group of rare GI malignancies with limited data to guide management. This study describes management of PGINHL in a population-based registry and aims to determine the association between receipt of surgery and long-term survival.

methodsAll adults diagnosed with PGINHL over 27 years in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results were identified (excluding mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas). Demographic and clinical characteristics were assessed. Survival was compared using the log-rank method. Cox hazard modeling was used to determine independent prognostic factors.

resultsWe identified 16,129 patients. The majority were of gastric origin and had diffuse large B cell histology. Surgery was performed in 46.9 % of patients, not recommended in 41.8 % and recommended but not performed in 10.1 %. Overall 1-year and 5-year survival rates were 65.6 and 35.6 %, respectively. Patients undergoing surgery had a 5-year survival of 43.6 % compared to 34.8 % for whom surgery was recommended but not performed (p < .0001), (receipt of chemotherapy not available). Female gender, gastric location, follicular or mantle cell histology, and radiation therapy were associated with improved survival.

conclusionsNearly 50 % of PGINHL patients underwent surgery. Surgery was not associated with improved survival. More prospective, case-matched studies are needed to guide management.
