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

Tumor cells of classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) are derived from antigen presenting B cells that are infected by Epstein Barr virus (EBV) in ~30% of patients. Polymorphic Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) expressed on NK cells interact with human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I and play a key role in immune surveillance against virally infected cells and tumor cells. We investigated the effect of KIR types on cHL susceptibility overall (n=211) and in EBV-stratified subgroups using the Dutch GoNL cohort as controls (n=498). The frequency of the KIR haplotype B subgroup was significantly different between EBV+ and EBV- cHL patients (62% vs. 77%, p=0.04) and this difference was more pronounced in nodular sclerosis (NS) cHL (49% vs. 79%, p=0.0003). The frequency of KIR haplotype B subgroup was significantly lower in EBV+ NS cHL compared to controls (49% vs. 67%, p=0.01). Analyses of known KIR - HLA interaction pairs revealed lower carrier frequencies of
