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

backgroundAngioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL), a unique subtype of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, has relatively poor outcomes. High-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) can achieve complete remission and improve outcomes. Unfortunately, subsequent T-cell lymphoma-triggered hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) has a worse prognosis than B-cell lymphoma-triggered HLH. CASE SUMMARY: We here report a 50-year-old woman with AITL who achieved a favorable outcome after developing HLH 2 mo after receiving high-dose chemotherapy/ ASCT. The patient was initially admitted to our hospital because of multiple enlarged lymph nodes. The final pathologic diagnosis, made on biopsy of a left axillary lymph node was AITL (Stage IV, Group A). Four cycles of the following chemotherapy regimen were administered: Cyclophosphamide 1.3 g, doxorubicin 86 mg, and vincristine 2 mg on day 1; prednisone 100 mg on days 1-5; and lenalidomide 25 mg on days 1-14. The interval between each cycle was 21 d. The patient received a conditioning regimen (busulfan, cyclophosphamide, and etoposide) followed by peripheral blood stem cell infusion. Unfortunately, she developed sustained fever and a low platelet count 17 d after ACST, leading to a diagnosis of HLH after ASCT. During treatment, she experienced thrombocytopenia and

conclusionIt is possible that development of HLH is related to immune reconstitution after ASCT.
