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 subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Because the prognosis of DLBCL patients varies considerably, there is an urgent need to identify novel prognostic factors. In this study, we investigated the expression levels of the signalling enzyme 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1 (PDK1), the cell cycle regulatory enzyme Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) and the transcription factor (c-Myc) in DLBCL tissues and evaluated their clinical and prognostic significance. PDK1, PLK1 and c-Myc were detected by immunohistochemical staining of paraffin-embedded specimens from 152 DLBCL and 48 lymphadenitis patients. Expression levels were correlated with clinicopathological factors. PDK1, PLK1 and c-Myc were more commonly expressed in DLBCL specimens than in lymphadenitis specimens, and the expression of each protein correlated positively with that of the other two molecules. High PDK1, PLK1 and c-Myc expression, high international prognostic index score, high lactate dehydrogenase levels and late Ann Arbor stage were shown to correlate with shorter overall survival time. A multivariate Cox regression model showed that high expression levels of PLK1 and c-Myc were independent prognostic factors for DLBCL. Our findings indicate that PLK1 and c-Myc expression might be promising predictive biomarkers for DLBCL patients.
