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

objectivesEpstein-Barr virus-positive large B-cell lymphoma (EBV+ LBCL) is a heterogeneous group of diseases that may resemble classic Hodgkin lymphoma (CHL) both morphologically and immunophenotypically. However, these diseases are treated with different therapies and carry distinct prognoses. We examined CD200 expression by immunohistochemistry in EBV+ LBCL and evaluated its diagnostic utility in the differential diagnosis with CHL.

methodsCD200 immunohistochemistry was performed on archival material from 20 cases of CHL (11 EBV+, 9 EBV-), 11 cases of EBV+ LBCL, and 10 cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (DLBCL NOS). Staining pattern and intensity (0-3+ scale) were recorded.

resultsCD200 positivity was seen in Reed-Sternberg cells in 19 (95%) of 20 cases of CHL, predominantly in a strong (3+, 15/19) and diffuse (>50% of cells, 17/19) pattern. In contrast, CD200 was negative in 8 (73%) of 11 cases of EBV+ LBCL; the 3 positive cases showed 1 to 2+ staining in less than 50% of lesional cells. All cases of DLBCL NOS were negative for CD200.

conclusionsCD200 may be a useful immunophenotypic marker in differentiating EBV+ LBCL from CHL, with negative to partial/weak staining favoring a diagnosis of EBV+ LBCL and strong diffuse staining favoring a diagnosis of CHL.
