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

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare fatal clinical syndrome characterized by a hyperinflammatory condition caused by aberrantly activated macrophages and cytotoxic T cells, resulting in a cytokine storm and organ impairment. Lymphoma, especially B-cell lymphoma in Japan, is a common trigger of secondary HLH. In China, however, most cases of HLH secondary to lymphoma occur in patients with T-cell/natural killer-cell lymphoma or Hodgkin`s lymphoma; HLH is relatively uncommon in patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. We herein describe a man with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and secondary HLH who was successfully treated by R-CHOP-E chemotherapy. All symptoms resolved and laboratory indications of HLH normalized, and complete remission of the lymphoma was achieved. This rare case highlights not only the possibility of HLH secondary to DLBCL but also the importance of early initiation of R-CHOP-E chemotherapy.
