A systematic review and meta-analysis of immune checkpoint therapy in relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma; a friend or foe?
Review in Translational oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Over the last decades, a revolution has occurred in oncology with the development of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Following tremendous successes in solid tumors, interest has risen to explore these inhibitors in hematologic malignancies; while Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) has shown overwhelming achievements, available data on different types of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) vary considerably. To the best of our knowledge, no meta-analysis has assessed the efficacy and safety of ICI therapy in relapsed or refractory NHL patients. Meta-analysis of the included studies (n = 29) indicated PD-1 may probably be the more attractive ICI target rather than PD-L1 and CTLA-4 in NHL patients. Also, there is a plausible correlation between NHL subtypes and response to ICI therapy. While MF, ENKTL, RT, and PMBCL showed promising responses to ICI monotherapy, neither FL nor DLBCL had satisfactory responses; further necessitating novel strategies such as the application of ICIs in combination with other treatment strategies. Notably, among different combinations, BTK inhibitors showed an obvious improvement as compared to ICI monotherapy in both FL and DLBCL, however, the best results were obtained when ICI was combined with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies. Finally, while most NHL patients who received ICI treatment have experienced mild AEs, larger trials with long-term follow-up are required to confirm the safety, as well as the efficacy, of ICI therapy in NHL patients.
