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

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a biologically and clinically heterogenous disease. Identifying more precise and individual survival prognostic models are still needed. This study aimed to develop a predictive nomogram and a web-based survival rate calculator that can dynamically predict the long-term cancer-specific survival (CSS) of DLBCL patients. A total of 3,573 eligible patients with DLBCL from 2004 to 2015 were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database. The entire group was randomly divided into the training (n = 2,504) and validation (n = 1,069) cohorts. We identified six independent predictors for survival including age, sex, marital status, Ann Arbor stage, B symptom, and chemotherapy, which were used to construct the nomogram and the web-based survival rate calculator. The C-index of the nomogram was 0.709 (95% CI, 0.692-0.726) in the training cohort and 0.700 (95% CI, 0.671-0.729) in the validation cohort. The AUC values of the nomogram for predicting the 1-, 5-, and 10- year CSS rates ranged from 0.704 to 0.765 in both cohorts. All calibration curves revealed optimal consistency between predicted and actual survival. A risk stratification model generated based on the nomogram showed a favorable level of predictive accuracy compared with the IPI, R-IPI, and Ann Arbor stage in both cohorts according to the AUC values (training cohort: 0.715
