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

purpose of reviewFunctional imaging with 18FDG-PET-CT has transformed the staging and response assessment of patients with Hodgkin (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Herein, we review the current role and future directions for functional imaging in the management of patients with lymphoma. RECENT

findingsBecause of its increased sensitivity, PET-CT is the preferred modality for staging of FDG-avid lymphomas. It appears to have a role for interim assessment in patients with HL with adaptive strategies that reduce toxicity in lower risk patients and increase efficacy in those at high risk. Such a role has yet to be demonstrated in other histologies. FDG-PET-CT is also the gold standard for response assessment posttreatment. Newer uses include assessment of total metabolic tumor volume and radiomics in pretreatment prognosis. Whereas PET-CT is more sensitive than other current modalities for staging and response assessment, the future of PET-CT will be in conjunction with other modalities, notably assessment of minimal residual disease and microenvironmental markers to develop risk adaptive strategies to improve the outcome of patients with lymphoma.
