Beneficial effect of consolidative radiotherapy for patients with lymphoma and skeletal involvement.
Observational study in Medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The objectives of this study were to analyze the clinical features of patients with bone involved lymphoma and identify the prognostic factors and to explore the optimized treatment strategy for bone involved lymphoma.A total of 1948 patients with lymphoma in our cancer center from September 2006 to October 2017 were retrospectively evaluated. Among these, 109 patients with skeletal involvement in lymphoma were enrolled. According to the pathologic subtypes, the patients were divided into 3 subgroups: classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL), and T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (T-NHL). The clinical characteristics and overall survival (OS) of 3 groups of patients were reviewed, and the prognostic factors were analyzed.There were 9 (3 unifocal, 6 multifocal) patients with primary bone lymphoma. The 5-year OS of cHL, B-NHL, and T-NHL patients was 88.24%, 54.09%, and 61.58%, respectively. Advanced stage, elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), age above 60, high International Prognostic Index score, and treatment without radiotherapy for the bone involved were significant poor prognostic factors for OS of all patients in univariate analysis. There was a trend toward better OS not only in limited-stage but also in advanced-stage patients with radiotherapy for the bone involved compared with the patients without radiotherapy. Elevated LDH level and age above 60 were the independent unfavorable prognostic factor in multivariate analysis.Elevated LDH level and age above 60 predict the poor prognosis of patients with bone involvement. The potential for long-term survival suggests that additional consolidative radiotherapy for the site of skeleton involvement may have a better chance of long-term success.
