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

Nodal Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma (CTL) is a primary nodal peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) characterized by a cytotoxic phenotype and EBV on the tumor cells. This disease reportedly accounts for 21% of PTCL not otherwise specified (NOS). However, few nodal EBV+ lymphomas have been documented in detail. Nodal EBV+ CTL and nasal-type NK/T-cell lymphoma (NKTL) both exhibit cytotoxic molecule expression and EBV positivity on the tumor cells; however, nodal EBV+ CTL is characterized as a systemic disease without nasopharyngeal involvement, and exhibits a CD8+/CD56- phenotype distinct from NKTL. The clinicopathological uniqueness of nodal EBV+ CTL is further supported by its T-cell origin in most reported cases. In the 2008 WHO classification, it was unclear whether nodal EBV+ CTL should be classified as PTCL or NKTL. However, based on additional data, the 2017 revision classifies nodal EBV+ CTL as PTCL. In the present review, we focus on the clinicopathological characteristics of nodal EBV+ CTL, discuss the relationship between chronic active EBV infection and nodal EBV+ lymphoma, and highlight future perspectives regarding the treatment of this disease.
