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

methodsData of newly diagnosed DLBCL at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were retrospectively collected. Baseline Dmax, clinical data and survival information were recorded. A metabolic parameter, metabolic bulk volume (MBV), was also measured to verify the independent impact of Dmax.

resultsOptimal cut-off values for Dmax and MBV were 45.34 cm and 21.65 cm

conclusionDmax is a new and promising indicator to investigate dissemination of lymphoma lesions associated with the outcome of DLBCL. It significantly contributes to stratification of patients with disparate outcomes.

trial registrationThis research has been retrospectively registered in the Ethics Committee institutional of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, and the registration number was approval No. 155 (approved date: 31 May 2022).
