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

backgroundPrimary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (PC-ALCL) differs from systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma (sALCL) in cell biological behavior, clinical features, treatment, and outcome. PC-ALCL has been reported to rarely transition into sALCL, but the underlying mechanism is not clear. Here we report such a case with certain characteristics that shed light on this. CASE SUMMARY: Herein, we report a 43-year-old male with symptoms of a skin nodule and histologically confirmed PC-ALCL with high expression of Ki-67. After three months of observation, two skin nodules re-appeared with muscle layer involvement and was histologically confirmed as sALCL. Seventeen months after receiving six cycles of CHOP regimen, the patient had pain in the chest and back, cough, shortness of breath, and night sweats. This was confirmed as relapse of sALCL by immunohistochemistry and several organs, such as the lung were involved as shown by positron emission tomography/computed tomography. After four cycles of DICE plus chidamide regimens followed by auto-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT), complete remission (CR) duration was achieved for twelve months while the patient was on maintenance with chidamide (20 mg) pills.

conclusionThis case had significantly high expression of Ki-67 when diagnosed as PC-ALCL initially and then transitioned into sALCL, which is rare. Auto-ASCT combined with demethylation drugs effectively maintained CR and prolonged progression free survival.
