Review in Leukemia, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05490953 (Enhancing Effect on Tumour Apoptosis With the Combined Use of Pentoxifylline Plus Chemotherapeutical Agents in Pediatrics and AYA Patients With Hodgkin´s Lymphoma), which is not on this map. Cited by 147 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

Classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) is unique among lymphoid malignancies in several key biological features. (i) The Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg (HRS) tumor cells are rare among an extensive and complex microenvironment. (ii) They derive from B cells, but have largely lost the B-cell typical gene expression program. (iii) Their specific origin appears to be pre-apoptotic germinal center (GC) B cells. (iv) They consistently develop bi- or multinucleated Reed-Sternberg cells from mononuclear Hodgkin cells. (v) They show constitutive activation of numerous signaling pathways. Recent studies have begun to uncover the basis of these specific features of cHL: HRS cells actively orchestrate their complex microenvironment and attract many distinct subsets of immune cells into the affected tissues, to support their survival and proliferation, and to create an immunosuppressive environment. Reed-Sternberg cells are generated by incomplete cytokinesis and refusion of Hodgkin cells. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) plays a major role in the rescue of crippled GC B cells from apoptosis and hence is a main player in early steps of lymphomagenesis of EBV
