Characteristics and Outcome of Extranodal NK/T-cell Lymphoma in North America: A Retrospective Multi-Institutional Experience.
Article in Clinical lymphoma, myeloma & leukemia, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
backgroundExtranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) is rare and clinical data from non-Asian countries are lacking. It is unclear whether outcomes and disease natural history is similar to reported Asian series. We assessed characteristics and outcomes of patients with ENKTL from major North American centers. PATIENTS AND
methodsWe retrospectively identified patients with newly-diagnosed CD56 + ENKTL and studied disease characteristics and clinical outcomes.
resultsOne hundred and twenty-one patients with ENKTL diagnosed between June 1990 and November 2012 were identified. Eighty-three patients (69%) had stage I/II disease and were treated with combined modality therapy (CMT) (n = 53), chemotherapy alone (CT) (n = 14) or radiotherapy alone (RT) (n = 16). Thirty-eight patients (31%) had stage III/IV disease and were treated with CMT (n = 12), CT (n = 23), or RT (n = 3). The median follow-up for the entire cohort was 51 months. Patients with stage I/II disease, compared to those with stage III/IV disease, had superior 2-year progression free survival (PFS) 43% vs 19% (P = .03) and overall survival (OS) 59% vs. 29% (P= .004). Outcomes were similar for stage I/II patients who received CMT vs. RT alone with 2-year PFS (53% vs. 47%; P= .91) and OS (67% vs. 67%; P= .58). No significant differences in outcomes were noted based on race/ethnicity.
conclusionsThis series represents a large experience of ENKTL treated at several major North American academic centers. Our data are consistent with Asian studies: (1) majority of patients present with early-stage disease; (2) overall poor outcome regardless of race/ethnicity; (3) CMT likely yields favorable outcomes for suitable candidates with early-stage disease.
