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

introductionMantle cell lymphoma is an aggressive disease. Limited treatment options are available for refractory or relapsing presentation. We report the first case, to the best of our knowledge, of concurrent radiotherapy and lenalidomide use in this setting, focusing on its possible synergy and tolerance. CASE PRESENTATION: A 76-year-old man with a history of mantle cell lymphoma presented with ptosis of the left eyelid, eyelid swelling, and nasal obstruction. Results of positron emission tomography-computed tomography revealed a pathologic fluorodeoxyglucose uptake at the pharynx and left eyelid. He received treatment with ibrutinib, which was stopped 3 months later because of digestive toxic effects. Radiotherapy for the eyelid and pharynx was performed at a dose of 18 Gy, with concurrent lenalidomide administration. Evaluation 3 months later revealed complete disappearance of the 2 relapse sites. DISCUSSION: This case highlights the role of concomitant lenalidomide treatment and low-dose radiotherapy in patients with relapsing mantle cell lymphoma. Use of this combination treatment has achieved a complete local control with a safe toxicity profile. The case also illustrates the possible lenalidomide-induced radio sensitization.
