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

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)- negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is an aggressive CD30-positive non- Hodgkin lymphoma. ALK-ALCL rarely manifests with extensive bone marrow and peripheral blood involvement (known as "leukemic phase"). A 54-year-old woman was diagnosed with ALK-ALCL in leukemic phase, characterized by an extremely poor prognosis. Lymphoma cells in this case showed chromosomal translocation 1p36.1- encoded RUNX3 and overexpression of its protein. She was refractory to CHOP and salvage chemotherapy. Fortunately, she achieved complete remission with three cycles of Brentuximab vedotin (BV) and underwent umbilical cord blood transplantation. However, she died due to treatment-related mortality on day 129. The autopsy findings showed no lymphoma cells. Treatment strategy for ALK-ALCL is controversial, but the efficacy of BV in CD30-positive peripheral T-cell lymphoma not only as salvage regimens, but also in first line, has been reported in recent years. BV may be an effective option for ALK-ALCL in leukemic phase.
