Prognostic significance of latent membrane protein 1 expression in non-Hodgkin lymphoma: A meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Medicine, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroundThe prognostic value of latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) has been evaluated in several studies. However, the conclusions remain controversial.
methodsWe searched relevant literatures from Embase, PubMed, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure Platform databases and performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the prognostic significance of LMP1 expression in NHL. Pooled hazard ratio (HR), 95% confidence interval (CI), and P value were calculated. Nine relevant studies were analyzed in this meta-analysis. We performed a pooled analysis to assess the association between LMP1 expression and overall survival of NHL patients.
resultsOur results revealed that LMP1-positive NHL patients had significantly poorer outcomes than LMP1-negative patients (HR = 2.13, 95% CI = 1.31-3.46, Pheterogeneity = 0.005, I = 63.5%). Furthermore, in the subgroup analysis stratified by country, a statistically significant association was found among Chinese (HR = 2.80, 95% CI = 1.53-5.15, Pheterogeneity = 0.342, I = 6.9%); however, no statistically significant relations were found among Japanese (HR = 1.55, 95% CI = 0.74-3.24, Pheterogeneity = 0.020, I = 65.7%).
conclusionThe expression of LMP1 can be considered a poor predictor of survival in patients with NHL. In addition, LMP1 expression assessment could provide more detailed information for patients with NHL and could be used to optimize therapeutic schemes.
