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

Incidental detection of lymphoma in lymph node (LN) dissection for carcinoma is extremely rare. The occurrence and clinicopathological features of this rare condition have not been characterised. The medical records of 11,889 consecutive patients who underwent LN dissection for carcinoma in the abdominopelvic cavity were retrospectively reviewed. Among these patients, 11 had lymphomas detected in LN dissections and 7 had no previous history of lymphoma, representing an incidental detection rate of 0.06% (7/11889). The patients had a median age of 63 years (range, 48-69 years), and the male-to-female ratio was 1:2.5. The sites and histological types of the carcinoma were as follows: adenocarcinoma of the sigmoid colon (2 cases), endometrioid adenocarcinoma of the endometrium (2 cases), squamous carcinoma of the uterine cervix (1 case), adenocarcinoma of the stomach (1 case), and adenocarcinoma of the rectum (1 case). All incidental lymphoma cases (100%, 7/7) were low-grade B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL), including 5 cases of follicular lymphoma (grades 1-2) and 2 cases of small lymphocytic lymphoma. The median follow-up interval was 39 months (5-65 months). All the patients were alive at the end of the follow-up period. Low-grade B-NHL can be incidentally detected during LN dissection for carcinoma in the abdominopelvic cavity. The subtype of incidental lymphoma is likely related to the epidemiology of lymphoma classes in the corresponding area. We should be aware of simultaneous occurrence of incidental lymphoma during lymphadenectomy for carcinoma.
