Investigating and modeling positron emission tomography factors associated with large cell transformation from low-grade lymphomas.
Article in EJHaem, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Low-grade lymphomas have a 1%-3% annual risk of transformation to a high-grade histology, and prognostic factors remain undefined. We set to investigate the role of positron emission tomography (PET) metrics in identification of transformation in a retrospective case-control series of patients matched by histology and follow-up time. We measured PET parameters including maximum standard uptake value (SUV-max) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG), and developed a PET feature and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)-based model to identify transformation status within discovery and validation cohorts. For our discovery cohort, we identified 53 patients with transformation and 53 controls with a similar distribution of follicular lymphoma (FL). Time to transformation and control follow-up time was similar. We observed a significant incremental increase in SUV-max and TLG between control, pretransformation and post-transformation groups (
