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

To study the role of the absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), absolute monocyte count (AMC), platelet count (PLT), lymphocyte-monocyte ratio (LMR) and the platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in the prognosis of primary gastrointestinal diffuse large B cell lymphoma (PGI-DLBCL). We retrospectively analyzed the prognostic value of the ALC, AMC, PLT, LMR, PLR at diagnosis in 173 PGI-DLBCL patients through histopathological examination from March 2009 to February 2015. In total, 173 patients with histopathological diagnosis of PGI-DLBCL in this study, the median age was 51 years (range 12-90 years), median follow-up time was 44 months (range 7-89 months). In univariate analysis, age <60 years, B symptoms, Lugano stage I-II, low international prognostic index (IPI) or low age-adjusted international prognostic index (aaIPI), normal lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), normal β2-microglobulin (β2m), Hb ≥ 11 g/dL, ALC ≥ 1.5 × 10
