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

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common form of lymphoma and shows considerable clinical and biological heterogeneity. Much research is currently focused on the identification of prognostic markers for more specific patients' risk stratification and on the development of therapeutic approaches to improve the long-term outcome. Epigenetic alterations are involved in various cancers, including lymphoma. Interestingly, epigenetic alterations are reversible and drugs to target some of them have been developed. In this study, we demonstrated that the gene expression profile of epigenetic regulators has a prognostic value in DLBCL and identified pathways that could be involved in DLBCL poor outcome. We then designed a new risk score (EpiScore) based on the gene expression level of the epigenetic regulators DNMT3A, DOT1L, SETD8. EpiScore was predictive of overall survival in DLBCL and allowed splitting patients with DLBCL from two independent cohorts (
