Outcome of combined modality treatment in first-line for stage I(E) peripheral T-cell lymphoma; a nationwide population-based cohort study from the Netherlands.
Article in Haematologica, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) comprise a heterogeneous group of mature T-cell neoplasms with an unfavorable prognosis; presentation with stage I(E) disease is uncommon. In clinical practice, an abbreviated chemotherapy treatment regimen combined with radiotherapy (combined modality treatment [CMT]) is commonly used, although evidence from clinical trials is lacking. The aim of this nationwide population-based cohort study is to describe first-line treatment and outcome of patients with stage I(E) PTCL. All newly diagnosed patients ≥18 years with stage I(E) anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) and peripheral T-cell lymphoma NOS (PTCL not otherise specified [NOS]) in 1989-2020 were identified in the Netherlands Cancer Registry. Patients were categorized according to treatment regimen, i.e., chemotherapy (CT), radiotherapy (RT), CMT, other therapy and no treatment. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Patients with stage I(E) ALCL, AITL and PTCL NOS (n=576) were most commonly treated with CMT (28%) or CT (29%), 2% underwent SCT. RT only was given in 18%, and 8% received other therapy and 16% no treatment. Overall, the 5-year OS was 59%. According to subtype, 5-year OS was superior for ALCL as compared to PTCL NOS and AITL (68% vs. 55% and 52%, respectively; P=0.03). For patients treated with CMT, 5-year OS was significantly higher (72%) as compared to patients treated with either CT or RT alone (55% and 55%, respectively; P<0.01). In multivariable analysis, age per year increment (hazard ratio [HR] =1.06, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.05-1.07), male sex (HR=1.53, 95% CI: 1.23-1.90), and CT, or no treatment (HR=1.64, 95% CI: 1.21-2.21, and HR=1.55, 95% CI: 1.10-2.17, respectively) were associated with a higher risk of mortality. For stage I(E) ALCL, AITL and PTCL NOS, 5-year OS is 59%, comparing favorably to historical outcome in advanced-stage disease. Superior outcome estimates were observed in patients treated with CMT.
