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

objectiveThe survival of patients with lymphoma varies greatly among individuals and were affected by various factors. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a prognostic model for predicting overall survival (OS) in patients with lymphoma.

methodsWe conducted a prospective longitudinal cohort study in China between January 2014 and December 2018 (n = 1,594). After obtaining the follow-up data, we randomly split the cohort into the training cohort (n = 1,116) and the validation cohort (n = 478). The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis was used to select the predictors of the model. Cox stepwise regression analysis was used to identify independent prognostic factors, which were finally displayed as static nomogram and web-based dynamic nomogram. We calculated the concordance index(C-index) to describe how the predicted survival of objectively confirmed prognosis. The calibration plot is used to evaluate the prediction accuracy and discrimination ability of the model. Net reclassification index (NRI) and decision curve analysis (DCA) curves were also used to evaluate the prediction ability and net benefit of the model.

resultsNine variables in the training cohort were considered to be independent risk factors for patients with lymphoma in the final model: age, Ann Arbor Stage, pathologic type, B symptoms, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), β2-microglobulin and C-reactive protein (CRP). The C-indices of OS were 0.749 (95% CI, 0.729-0.769) in the training cohort and 0.731 (95% CI, 0.762-0.700) in the validation cohort. A good agreement between prediction by nomogram and actual observation was shown in the calibration curve for the probability of survival in both the training cohort and validation cohorts. The areas under curve (AUC) of the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year OS were 0.813, 0.800, and 0.762, respectively, in the training cohort, and 0.802, 0.768, and 0.721, respectively, in the validation cohort. Compared with the Ann Arbor Stage system, NRI and DCA showed that the model had a higher predictive capacity and net benefit.

conclusionThe prediction models reliably estimate the outcome of patients with lymphoma. The model had high discrimination and calibration, which provided a simple and reliable tool for the survival prediction of the patients, and it might help patients benefit from personalized intervention.
