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

Secondary central nervous system (CNS) relapse by aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is a well-known complication portending a very poor prognosis. Conversely, patients with indolent lymphoma-like follicular lymphoma (FL) rarely present with CNS involvement and, thus, limited information is currently available. We herein describe a patient with FL who developed CNS involvement during chemotherapy. Treatment including high-dose methotrexate and radiation therapy was ineffective and the patient died 5 months after CNS relapse. In a literature review, there were 8 case reports of the secondary CNS relapse of FL. The findings obtained suggest that bone marrow infiltration is a risk factor for CNS relapse. Moreover, 5 out of 9 patients died within 2.5 years, indicating a poorer prognosis than that of FL. Therefore, it is important to promptly perform detailed examinations as soon as neurological findings appear.
