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

Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma is a rare disease of the large B cells characterized by selective growth in the lumina of small vessels in systemic organs. Since first reported in 1959, the difficulty of obtaining sufficient tumor cells from biopsy specimens has hampered the elucidation of its underlying biology. Recent progress using xenograft models and plasma cell-free DNA has uncovered genetic features that are similar to those of activated B-cell type diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, including MYD88 and CD79B mutations and frequent alterations in immune check point-related genes such as PD-L1 and PD-L2. Given the improvement in clinical outcomes and a higher risk of secondary central nervous system (CNS) involvement in the rituximab era, a phase 2 trial of R-CHOP combined with high-dose methotrexate and intrathecal chemotherapy as a CNS-oriented therapy has been conducted. This trial, the PRIMEUR-IVL study, has displayed good progression-free survival and a low cumulative incidence of secondary CNS involvement. Long-term follow-up within this trial is still ongoing. Further understanding of the pathophysiology of the disease and improvements in clinical outcomes are still needed.
