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

Primary anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) of the central nervous system (CNS) is a subtype of primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL). There are very few comprehensive reports on this extremely rare tumor. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the clinical features and prognostic factors for primary ALCL of the CNS. We performed a systematic review of the published literature. Past cases were comprehensively searched using PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. Clinical information, such as age, sex, anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) status, lesion sites, treatment methods, and survivorship were extracted. Thirty-nine cases with information on ALK status and treatment course were identified. The average observation period was 13 months, and the overall 2-year survival rate was 58%. Univariate analyses showed a statistically significantly better prognosis among patients < 40 years of age (
