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

purposeTo investigate the clinical features, prognostic outcomes of patients with orbital and ocular adnexal lymphoma (OALs) in Taiwanese cohort.

methodsTotal 112 patients with OALs were retrospectively reviewed. Demographic information such as age, gender, lymphoma subtype, tumor location and treatment modalities were recorded. The primary endpoints were disease-specific survival (DSS), and progression-free survival (PFS).

resultsThe mean patient age was 59.0 ± 15.5 years (range, 23-92 years). The major histopathologic subtypes were mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma in 76 patients (67.9%), followed by diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (9.8%), follicular cell lymphoma (FL) (8.0%), and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) (5.4%). The anatomical locations for OALs were the orbit (44 patients, 39.3%), the conjunctiva (31 patients, 27.7%), the lacrimal gland (28 patients, 25.0%), and the eyelid (8 patients, 7.1%). With a mean follow-up time of 74.5 ± 59.8 months (range 6-342 months), the DSS for all patients were 93.1%, 87.7%, and 68.8% at 60, 120, and 180 months' follow-up, respectively. The PFS at 60, 120, and 180 months' follow-up were 86.2%, 61.2%, and 44.6%, respectively. Regarding the analysis of prognostic factors, patients with high grade lymphoma subtype and advanced stage exhibited a worse prognosis.

conclusionsMALT type lymphoma constitutes most of OALs in Taiwan and occurs more frequently than in Western countries. Patients with MALT lymphoma, FL, SLL and earlier stage have favorable outcomes compared with patients of high grade lymphoma and Ann Arbor stage IV lymphoma.
