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

aimPeripheral T-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) is a heterogeneous disease that can be classified into the PTCL-TBX21 and PTCL-GATA3 subtypes.

methodsIn this study, we compared the clinicopathological features of PTCL-NOS in a Japanese cohort, classified using an IHC algorithm.

resultsOne hundred patients with PTCL-NOS were categorized as having PTCL-TBX21 (n = 55), PTCL-GATA3 (n = 24), or PTCL-unclassified (n = 21). When comparing PTCL-TBX21 and PTCL-GATA3, PTCL-TBX21 showed significantly lower CD4 positivity (p = 0.047), lower counts of high endothelial venules (p = 0.032), and a tendency for a better response to initial treatment (p = 0.088). Gene expression analysis using the nCounter system showed higher expression of tumor immunity-related genes, such as PD-L1, LAG3, and IDO1, in PTCL-TBX21 than in PTCL-GATA3. PTCL-GATA3 had significantly worse overall survival (OS) than those with PTCL-TBX21 (p = 0.047), although a similar tendency was observed for progression-free survival (PFS) (p = 0.064). PTCL-GATA3 was a prognostic factor for OS in univariate analysis (HR 2.02; 95% CI, 1.09-3.77; p = 0.027), although multivariate analysis did not show significance (HR 2.07; 95% CI, 0.93-4.61; p = 0.074). In the PFS analysis, PTCL-GATA3 was an independent prognostic factor by univariate analysis (HR 1.96; 95% CI, 1.08-3.56; p = 0.027) and multivariate analysis (HR 2.34; 95% CI, 1.07-5.11; p = 0.032).

conclusionThe classification of PTCL-NOS into PTCL-TBX21 and PTCL-GATA3 is useful for predicting the prognosis of Japanese patients and stratifying the administration of tumor immune checkpoint inhibitors in clinical practice.
