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

The emerging molecular and prognostic characterization of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has challenged the rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) treatment paradigm in recent years, with the identification of several DLBCL subtypes associated with significantly inferior survival after standard R-CHOP therapy. Efforts to improve upon the R-CHOP backbone have included dose intensification as well as the addition of new agents; the infusional dose-adjusted rituximab, etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin (DA-R-EPOCH) regimen has been identified as a potential replacement for R-CHOP in high-risk DLBCL. In this review, we provide a historical perspective on the R-CHOP and DA-R-EPOCH regimens and summarize the clinical trial literature regarding the efficacy of each regimen in various risk groups of DLBCL. Further, we propose clinical management scenarios in which DA-R-EPOCH may be preferred, including some for patient populations in which the use of R-CHOP vs DA-R-EPOCH is controversial.
