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

Background: Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) with cardiac infiltration has a poor prognosis. The median OS of patients failing to respond to chemotherapy has been reported to be 1 month vs. 18 months in patients responding to chemotherapy. Case presentation: Herein, we reported a case of a 57-year-old male confirmed with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who received radiation therapy of 150-cGy daily, administered in 30 fractions to the volume of cardiac infiltration, resulting in complete relief. Chemotherapy had no curative effect. The patient was subsequently enrolled in a clinical trial and received oral administration of zanubrutinib 80mg twice daily, after which he achieved complete remission. The progression-free survival was from diagnosis (January 7, 2020) to the follow-up (September 20, 2022), amounting to 32 months. Conclusion: Proper irradiation dose and timing of treatment can relieve NHL symptoms.
