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

The most common NHL subtype in SEEU is DLBCL (39%), and it manifests with a variety of cellular morphologies and a high proliferation index. Also, the GI tract is the most common site of extranodal NHLs, and most NHLs involving the GI tract are of B-cell lineage, of which diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common subtype, irrespective of location. The last few years have seen digital pathology as a vital technology that has a positive impact on diagnostics, but studies on the use of DP for lymphoma identification, however, are still restricted to only determining whether a tumor is present or absent. Using the example of cases of malignant NHL, we aim to investigate the diagnostic utility of DP using QuPath software in evaluating the proliferation index and the prognostic significance and to show that improved visualization and analysis contribute to the convergence of these complementary diagnostic modalities for lymphomas. The average proliferation index (Ki67) was 58.33% with values between 10% and 85%. After the stratification of the cases, an increased proliferation index was observed in the majority of cases (53.33%), and this aspect was associated with the advanced age of the patients (
