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

purposeThis study evaluated the predictive significance of total metabolic tumour volume (TMTV) measured on baseline FDG PET/CT and its value in addition to gene expression profiling using a new method of gene analysis (rapid reverse transcriptase multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification assay, RT-MLPA) in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma treated with R-CHOP or R-CHOP-like chemotherapies.

methodsThe analysis included 114 patients. TMTV was measured using a 41% SUVmax threshold and tumours were classified into GCB or ABC subtypes according to the RT-MLPA assay.

resultsThe median follow-up was 40 months. the 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) was 54% and the 5-year overall survival (OS) was 62%. The optimal TMTV cut-off value was 261 cm

conclusionsThis integrated risk model could lead to more accurate selection of patients that would allow better individualization of therapy.
