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

Objective To determine the efficacy and prognosis of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) as frontline treatment for peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL). Methods Clinical data from 46 PTCL patients who achieved complete (CR) or partial remission (PR) after ASCT from October 1996 to July 2014 were analysed retrospectively. Results Median patient age was 32 (range: 15-68) years. Disease types included PTCL, unspecified type, in 23 patients, anaplastic large cell lymphoma in eight, angioimmunoblastic lymphoma in eight, extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma in five, and hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma and enteropathy associated T-cell lymphoma in one each. Of these patients, 80% had Prognostic Index for Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma scores ≥1. Thirty-four patients had pre-transplantation CR and 12 had PR. Median follow up was 37 (6-176) months. The 5-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 77.1% and 61.9%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that pre-transplantation CR was an independent risk factor for survival, and CR was more common than PR (OS 81% vs 59.3%; PFS 71.8% vs 17.8%). Conclusion Frontline consolidation treatment with ASCT was associated with favourable outcomes in patients with PTCL. Pre-transplantation CR was a prognostic factor for survival, suggesting that ASCT may be favoured as front-line consolidation therapy after first complete remission.
