Histiocytic and dendritic cell neoplasms: what have we learnt by studying 67 cases.
Article in Virchows Archiv : an international journal of pathology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 45 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Tumors derived from histiocytic and dendritic cells encompass a large and heterogeneous group of neoplastic and reactive conditions, and their diagnosis is challenging both for pathologists and clinicians. Diagnosis is based on morphological and phenotypical findings, but hybrid features are not uncommon. Furthermore, recent studies uncovered the molecular mechanisms driving some of these tumors, improving diagnostic adequacy, and providing the basis for effective therapeutic breakthroughs.Sixty-seven cases were submitted to the accessory cell and histiocytic neoplasms session at the European Association of Haematopathology/Society for Hematopathology workshop 2016 held in Basel, Switzerland. The cases included histiocytic sarcomas (HS), Langerhans cell tumors (LCT), Erdheim-Chester disease, interdigitating dendritic cell sarcomas (IDCS), indeterminate dendritic cell tumors (IND-DCT), follicular dendritic cell sarcomas, and blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasms. Rosai-Dorfman disease and, more rare, conditions such as ALK-positive histiocytosis were also submitted. These cases illustrated classical and unexpected features at morphological, phenotypical, and molecular levels, providing a valuable compendium for pathologists confronting with these tumors.The paper summarizes the most notable features of every single group of diseases, with comments about the most challenging issues, in the attempt to provide practical indications for their recognition.
