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

In this study, our aim was to compare the efficacy and toxicity profiles of gemcitabine, cisplatin, and dexamethasone (GDP) and ifosfamide, carboplatin, and etoposide (ICE) regimens in the salvage treatment of relapsed/refractory lymphoma. A total of 110 patients with refractory/relapsed classical Hodgkin lymphoma (n = 22) or non-Hodgkin lymphoma (n = 88) who received GDP or ICE salvage regimens from January 2011 to July 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Of the 110 patients, 50 patients received GDP, and 60 patients received ICE. The response could be evaluated in all patients. In the GDP group, 30 (60.0%) patients achieved overall response rate (ORR), and in the ICE group, the ORR was 56.6%. Of the classical Hodgkin lymphoma patients, the ORR were 72.8% and 54.6% in the GDP and ICE groups, respectively. Of the non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients, the ORR were 56.4% and 57.1% in the GDP and ICE groups, respectively. Grade I-II toxicity occurred in 16 (32.0%) patients in the GDP group and 18 patients (30.0%) in the ICE group; 14 (28.0%) patients had Grade III-IV toxicity in the GDP group, as did 20 (33.3%) patients in the ICE group. As a result, both GDP and ICE regimens are suitable for the treatment of recurrent/refractory lymphoma. The overall adverse reactions of both regimens are acceptable.
