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

introductionPosttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is a rare complication seen in the period after liver transplant. The commonest subtype is B-cell PTLD which is usually associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. T-cell PTLD is rare and the association with EBV is again rarer. CASE: Our patient, a 21-year-old young adult, presented to us with generalized lymphadenopathy, 5 years after liver transplantation. The biopsy of the lymph node was suggestive of peripheral T-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified, which was associated with EBV infection. The Positron emission tomography and computerised tomography (PET-CT) scan showed stage 3 disease. He was treated with standard cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, etoposide, vincristine, and prednisolone chemotherapy and is currently in remission.

conclusionPeripheral T-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified is a rare subtype of PTLD and its association with EBV is even more rare. A few patients can achieve complete remission with standard chemotherapy.
