Prevalence of CD30 immunostaining in neoplastic mast cells: A retrospective immunohistochemical study.
Observational study in Medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Mastocytosis is a rare disease characterized by clonal neoplastic proliferation of mast cells (MCs). It ranges from skin lesions as cutaneous mastocytosis (CM) which may spontaneously regress to highly aggressive neoplasms with multiorgan involvement corresponding to some aggressive systemic mastocytosis (ASM), mast cell leukemia (MCL), and/or mast cell sarcoma (MCS).There is increasing evidence of CD30 expression in neoplastic MCs of the bone marrow. This expression has been described almost exclusively in aggressive forms of systemic mastocytosis (SM).The aim of the present study is to evaluate CD30 expression both in cutaneous and systemic forms of mastocytosis. Forty-two mastocytosis cases were reviewed, including cutaneous (n = 29) and systemic (n = 13) forms to assess the prevalence of CD30 expression. Thirty-nine out of 42 (92.8%) cases were CD30 positive. In cases of CM, 28/29 (96.5%) cases were CD30 positive, 11/13 cases of SM (84.6%) were positive for CD30. MCs in normal skin biopsies and in urticaria lesions were CD30-negative. This study found that CD30 is also frequently expressed in CM as well as in systemic forms. This finding is a major departure from the prevailing concept that CD30 expression is often related to aggressive systemic forms of mastocytosis.
