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

Here we describe our experience with a rare case of methotrexate (MTX)-associated lymphoproliferative disorder (LPD) initially diagnosed as follicular lymphoma (FL) and then in relapse as classic Hodgkin lymphoma (CHL). A 66-year-old man was admitted to the hospital with fever and abdominal and lower back pain after a transient remission of MTX-associated FL (MTX-FL) following MTX withdrawal. Computed tomography (CT) showed para-aortic lymphadenopathy, which was compatible with one of the previous FL lesions. We considered a relapse of FL and started bendamustine and rituximab. Although his initial symptoms and para-aortic lymphadenopathy regressed after the first course, he began to have dorsal pain, and multiple osteolytic lesions were detected on CT. We biopsied a Th4 vertebra osteolytic lesion, and the results indicated MTX-associated CHL (MTX-CHL). We successfully treated advanced MTX-CHL with brentuximab vedotin, doxorubicin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (A+AVD). This case suggests the importance of repeat biopsy of a new lesion arising after resolution of previously affected sites in MTX-LPD and the effectiveness of A+AVD in treating advanced MTX-CHL.
