Comparison of the Efficacy and Safety of Bexarotene and Photo(Chemo)Therapy Combination Therapy and Bexarotene Monotherapy for Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma.
Article in Dermatology and therapy, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
introductionCutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a chronic condition with low malignancy. The combined use of therapeutic agents and photo(chemo)therapy is widely applied for the treatment of CTCL. The efficacy and safety of bexarotene and photo(chemo)therapy combination therapy were previously confirmed in Japanese patients with CTCL. The efficacy and safety of the bexarotene and photo(chemo)therapy combination therapy was compared with bexarotene monotherapy in Japanese patients with CTCL.
methodsThis was a randomized, open-label, two-parallel-group, active-control specified clinical study in Japanese patients diagnosed with CTCL carried out over 8 weeks with a study extension conducted at two institutions. This study was registered in Japan Registry of Clinical Trials (jRCTs041180094).
resultsIn the combination therapy group, 22 subjects received oral bexarotene (300 mg/m
conclusionBoth bexarotene and photo(chemo)therapy combination therapy and bexarotene monotherapy were therapeutically effective in Japanese patients with CTCL and well tolerated. Combination therapy led to a higher skin lesion resolution rate and greater therapeutic effects compared with monotherapy.
