Trends of Incidence and Survival Rates of Mucosa-associated Lymphoid Tissue Lymphoma in the Korean Population: Analysis of the Korea Central Cancer Registry Database.
Article in Journal of Korean medical science, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundExtranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT-lymphoma) is an extranodal lymphoma that occurs at various sites in the body. There is a limited understanding of the incidence and survival rates of MALT-lymphoma. To investigate the nation-wide incidence and survival rates of MALT-lymphoma in Korea during 1999-2017, the data on MALT-lymphoma were retrieved from the Korea Central Cancer Registry.
methodsDuring the time period of 1999-2017, 11,128 patients were diagnosed with MALT-lymphoma. The age and sex of the patients and the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) summary stage of the tumor were analyzed, and the relative survival rates (RSRs) were calculated.
resultsThe age-standardized incidence rates of MALT-lymphoma in 2017 among males and females were 1.53 and 1.61 per 100,000 individuals, respectively, whereas those in 1999 among males and females were 0.21 and 0.20, respectively in Korea. The RSRs were more than 97% at 10 years post-diagnosis between 1993 and 2017. The 5-year RSRs were 87.4%, 94.8%, 97.8%, and 98.6% during 1996-2000, 2001-2005, 2006-2010, and 2013-2017, respectively. Based on SEER summary staging, the 5-year RSRs during 2013-2017 were 100.3%, 90.8%, 91.3%, and 97.9% for patients with localized, regional, distant, and unknown stages of MALT-lymphoma, respectively.
conclusionAlthough the incidence of MALT-lymphoma is low in Korea, it has been increasing in recent years. The prognosis of MALT-lymphoma is good even at advanced stages. These findings provide useful insights to clinicians about MALT-lymphoma and inform patients about the survival rate.
