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

ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) represents approximately 6-7% of the mature T-cell lymphomas. This subtype contains a translocation between the ALK gene on chromosome 2 and one of several other genes that together form an oncogene. The most frequent translocation is t(2;5) which combines ALK with NPM1. This lymphoma has a median age of 34 years, is more common in males, and is in advanced stage at the time of diagnosis in most patients. ALK-positive ALCL is the most curable of the peripheral T-cell lymphomas. The CHOP regimen has been most frequently used, but results are improved with the substitution of brentuximab vedotin for vincristine (BV-CHP) and the addition of etoposide (CHOEP), with BV-CHP being favored. Salvage therapies include allogeneic or autologous bone marrow transplantation, BV, if not used as part of the primary therapy, and ALK inhibitors. The latter are very active and likely to be incorporated into the primary therapy.
