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), a heterogeneous disease, is influenced by complex network of gene interactions. Most previous studies focused on individual genes, but ignored the importance of intergenic correlations. In current study, we aimed to explore the association between gene networks and overall survival (OS) of DLBCL patients treated with CHOP-based chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide combination with doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone). Weighted gene co-expression network analysis was conducted to obtain insights into the molecular characteristics of DLBCL. Ten co-expression gene networks (modules) were identified in training dataset (n = 470), and their associations with patients' OS after chemotherapy were tested. The results were validated in four independent datasets (n = 802). Gene ontology (GO) biological function enrichment analysis was conducted with Metascape. Three modules (purple, brown and red), which were enriched in T-cell immune, cell-cell adhesion and extracellular matrix (ECM), respectively, were found to be related to longer OS. Higher expression of several hub genes within these three co-expression modules, for example, LCP2 (HR = 0.77, p = 5.40 × 10
