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
purposeTo evaluate the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of Chinese children with advanced stage anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) who were treated with the low-intensity APO regimen.
methodsClinical data from children newly diagnosed with advanced stage ALCL and treated with the APO regimen were reviewed.
resultsAltogether 22 eligible patients with advanced stage ALCL were recruited in this study. 18 (81%) patients achieved complete response (CR) after the initial induction, and 4 experienced relapse. Among patients with relapsed or refractory ALCL, CR was achieved in 3 (50%) who received the BFM95 R3/R4 regimen. Besides, 2 patients received the targeted therapy with crizotinib and were still alive. The 5-year OS and EFS rates were 82 ± 8.7% and 68.2 ± 9.4%%, respectively. According to our results, the elevated LDH level and bone marrow involvement were identified as the poor prognostic factors for EFS (p=0.035 and 0.048, respectively). During APO treatment, only 23% patients experienced grade 3-4 hematologic toxicity.
conclusionsIn this study, bone marrow involvement and elevated serum LDH levels were identified as the poor prognostic factors for EFS. In resource-limited regions, patients with advanced stage ALCL can also achieve comparable outcomes to those in high-income regions, and the BFM95 R3/R4 regimen can take the role of salvage treatment for patients with relapsed or refractory disease. Nonetheless, new therapeutic strategy is still needed.
