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

purposeHepatosplenic T cell lymphoma (HSTCL) is a rare tumor that lacks data to guide management decisions. To shed light on the nature and therapy of the entity, we conducted this study. PATIENTS AND

methodsWe retrospectively reviewed patients diagnosed with HSTCL between 1975 and 2016 in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database to analyze the clinical characteristics and survival outcome compared with PTCL-NOS and ALK+ ALCL.

resultsA total of 123 HSTCLs were included in the analysis. Most patients were aged ≤60 years (81.3%) and had a male predominance (69.1%). Organs with lymphoma infiltration of HSTCL were more common in the spleen (98.4%). The 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates in the entire HSTCL cohort were 56.9% (95% CI, 47.5-66.3%), 37.6% (95% CI, 28.0-47.2%), and 31.6.0% (95% CI, 22.2-41.0%), respectively. The overall survival (OS) of HSTCL patients was similar to that of PTCL-NOS patients (P = 0.128) but worse than that of patients with ALK+ ALCL (P < 0.001). The disease-specific survival (DSS) of HSTCL patients was worse than that of PTCL-NOS and ALK+ ALCL patients (P < 0.05). The same tendency was found in the matched data set. Cox regression analyses indicated that the use of chemotherapy combined with topical treatment may improve the survival of patients with HSTCL.

conclusionA higher proportion of young patients and a strong male predominance were found in HSTCL. Chemotherapy combined with topical treatment may be an optional regimen. Further studies are needed to intensify efforts in dealing with this rare but unfavorable disease.
