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
purposeProgrammed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) has been proposed as an important prognostic factor in many types of cancer. However, the role of predicting the prognosis of PD-L1 in extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) was controversial. Combining other biomarkers might enhance its predictive power. This study aims to evaluate the prognostic value of PD-L1 in conjunction with tumor-infiltrating FoxP3+Tregs for ENKTL after non-anthracycline-based chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND
methodsA total of 81 patients with ENKTL were included in this study. Clinicopathological characteristics were collected, and prognostic significance of PD-L1 in neoplastic cells (nPD-L1) and tumor-infiltrating FoxP3+Tregs were evaluated.
resultsPatients with nPD-L1-positive had significantly inferior overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) compared with nPD-L1-negative (3-year OS, 37.2% vs 67.3%, p = 0.014; 3-year PFS, 31.0% vs 61.8%, p =0.010, respectively). Patients who had low FoxP3+Tregs had significantly inferior OS and PFS compared with high FoxP3+Tregs (3-year OS, 36.4% vs 63.0%, p = 0.004; 3-year PFS, 31.7% vs 56.3%, p = 0.020, respectively). The results of multivariate analysis showed that nPD-L1 positivity (HR 6.629, 95% CI 1.966-22.350, p=0.002) and low FoxP3+Tregs (HR 7.317, 95% CI 2.154-24.855, p=0.001) were independent predictors of inferior OS. Using these 2 variables, we constructed a new prognostic model that singled out 3 groups with different risk profiles: group 1, no adverse factors; group 2, 1 adverse factor; and group 3, 2 adverse factors. The 3-year OS rates of group 1, group 2, and group 3 were 93.3%, 46.6% and 20.8%, respectively (p<0.001), and the 3-year PFS rates were 86.7%, 40.8% and 15.0%, respectively (p=0.001).
conclusionThis study is the first to validate the prognostic value of nPD-L1 and tumor-infiltrating FoxP3+Tregs in ENKTL; the new immunological prognostic model might be used to stratify ENKTL patients in clinical trials for new therapeutic strategies.
