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

Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is a rare, mature, fast-growing and highly aggressive B-cell neoplasm. It has a high-proliferation rate with distinctive genetic changes in the C-MYC oncogene. Treatment usually requires intense and frequent chemotherapy regimens with central nervous system prophylaxis as the usual regimens used for other non-Hodgkin's lymphoma yield poor survival in BL. This report discusses a patient who was diagnosed with a stage II, high-grade BL who received one cycle of intense chemotherapy and refused further treatment. That patient remained in complete remission in his last follow-up; 7 years from diagnosis without requiring other therapies for his lymphoma.
