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

We compared the two methods of assessing CD30 protein expression in DLBCL and TCL specimens routinely employed at our hospital, immunohistochemistry (IHC) and flow cytometry (FCM), using the same clone of the anti-CD30 antibody (Ber-H2) in 123 patients with DLBCL and 28 patients with TCL. FCM was more sensitive than IHC, especially in cases with low expression. In three cases of TCL and two cases of DLBCL, there was discordance between these two methods. Two of these TCL cases were ALCL and one was peripheral T-cell lymphoma, NOS, but ALCL was unable to be excluded. One of two cases of DLBCL was an anaplastic variant of DLBCL. The data suggested that CD30 was undetectable, though rare, by FMC in several cases. Based on this study, a combination of IHC and FCM is recommended for the reliable and quantitative detection of CD30.
