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.
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
As the aging society advances, the number of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) patients is increasing. Aged relapsed or refractory (r/r) NHL patients have limited treatment options. Therefore, a safe and effective regimen is urgently needed for these patients. Thus, we originally developed the MTX-HOPE (methotrexate, hydrocortisone, vincristine, sobuzoxane, and etoposide) regimen for r/r NHL and validated the safety and efficacy of this regimen in a clinical setting. We analyzed the data of 42 r/r NHL patients who received MTX-HOPE in this single-center retrospective cohort study. The median age of the patients was 81 years. The overall response rate was 45.3%. The median overall survival (OS) was 7 months, the one-year OS was 43.7%, and the two-year OS was 40.8%. Grade ≥3 neutropenia and renal dysfunction were observed in 47.6% and 11.9% of patients, respectively, and treatment-related death were not observed. Appropriate supportive care enabled these patients to continue the MTX-HOPE regimen. The proportion of patients who needed hospitalization during MTX-HOPE therapy was only 21.4%. Multivariable analyses with the Cox proportional hazards model revealed that both OS and progression-free survival (PFS) were significantly influenced by high Ki-67 expression in pathology, with response to the MTX-HOPE regimen after three to five cycles as a time-dependent covariate. Our results suggest that MTX-HOPE therapy can be an option for non-aggressive r/r NHL patients. To validate MTX-HOPE therapy, further prospective investigation is needed.
