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

backgroundThe treatment outcomes and prognosis of lymphoma are affected by various factors such as hospital types. This study was to describe the temporal trend in the survival of lymphoma in an academic center in China.

methodsA total of 3840 consecutive patients with lymphoma diagnosed between 1996 and 2015 were reviewed. Eighty patients were excluded, and finally, 3760 patients were analyzed in this study. The cohort was divided into four groups according to calendar periods at diagnosis: 1996-2000, 2001-2005, 2006-2010, and 2010-2015. The overall survival (OS) rates among the four groups were compared.

resultsThe 5- and 10-year OS for the whole cohort were 62% and 52%, respectively. The 5-year OS of patient with classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), mature B-cell lymphoma (BCL), and peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) were 79%, 63%, and 50%, respectively. Among mature BCL, the 5-year OS was highest in follicular lymphoma (77.8%), followed by Burkitt lymphoma (76.5%), marginal zone lymphoma (74.1%), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (61.5%), small lymphocytic lymphoma/chronic lymphocytic leukemia (55.1%), and mantle cell lymphoma (44.3%). Among PTCL, the 5-year OS was highest in ALK+anaplastic large cell lymphoma (79.0%), followed by ALK-anaplastic large cell lymphoma (63.1%), natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (57.7%), angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (34.9%, and peripheral T-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified (27.6%). Significant improvement in the survival of lymphoma was observed, with the 5-year OS increasing from 48% in 1996-2000 to 65% in 2011-2015 (P < .001). The 5-year OS of patients with cHL, mature BCL, and PTCL changed from 55%, 49%, and 41% in 1996-2000 to 79%, 65%, and 51% in 2011-2015, respectively (P values were .014, .002, and .592, respectively).

conclusionThe survival of most types of lymphoma such as cHL and mature BCL, rather than PTCL, was improved significantly during the past two decades.
