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

backgroundPrimary central nervous system-diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PCNS-DLBCL) is a rare extra-nodal Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. There is relative paucity of literature on PCNSL from Indian subcontinent. We aimed to analyze the clinicopathological features of PCNSL and categorize them into germinal center B cell (GCB) and non-GCB subtypes to assess their prognostic significance in Indian context.

methodsAll patients with histopathologically diagnosed PCNSLs at our center over a period of 6 years were recruited and classified into GCB and non-GCB using Han's algorithm (immunohistochemistry for CD10, BCL6 and MUM1).

resultsEighty-six cases of PCNS-DLBCL were included with median age of 55 years. Majority of them were supratentorial in location (

conclusionThe majority of the CNS DLBCL belongs to non-GCB phenotype and uniformly carry poor prognosis, irrespective of their phenotype. Individual markers, such as BCL-6, MUM1, or CD10, are unable to predict outcome in PCNS-DLBCL.
