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

B-cell lymphomas, unclassifiable; with features intermediate between large B-cell lymphoma and Burkitt lymphoma (BCLu-DLBCL/BL) is a new entity included in the recent World Health Organization (WHO) classification of Tumours of the Hematopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues (2008) to overcome the problems of difficulty in classifying certain lymphomas having overlapping morphological, immunophenotypical and genetic features. To study the clinicopathological profile of BCLu-DLBCL/BL. Cross-sectional study over 3 year period in the Haematology section of Department of Pathology in a large teaching hospital in Southern India from January 2011 to December 2013. All the cases reported as BCLu-DLBCL/BL were collected and the clinical, morphological and immunohistochemical parameters were analyzed. Descriptive statistics. There were seven cases, four males and three females, of age ranging from 20 to 70 years. Five cases had extranodal involvement. Four cases had Burkitt morphology with strong Bcl2 positivity and absent CD10 expression. One case had the morphology and immunophenotype that of typical BL, along with strong positivity to Bcl2 suggesting a double hit hypothesis. Two cases had morphology and immunophenotype of BL with low Ki 67. Three patients on follow up had adverse outcome. BCLu-DLBCL/BL, a provisional category in WHO 2008 is useful in classifying the cases not meeting the criteria for classical BL or DLBCL. Each of these cases was interesting with different sites of involvement, different morphological features and immunophenotype with most of the patients on follow up ending with a grave prognosis.
