Baseline IgM Amounts Can Identify Patients with Poor Outcomes: Results from a Real-Life Single-Center Study on Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma.
Article in Cancers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) is characterized by an inflammatory background in which the reactive myeloid cells may exert an immune-suppressive effect related to the progression of the disease. Immunoglobulin M is the first antibody isotype produced during an immune response, which also plays an immunoregulatory role. Therefore, we investigated if, as a surrogate of defective B cell function, it could have any clinical impact on prognosis. In this retrospective, observational, single-center study, we evaluated 212 newly diagnosed HL patients, including 132 advanced-stage. A 50 mg/dL level of IgM at baseline resulted in 84.1% sensitivity and 45.5% specificity for predicting a complete response in the whole cohort (area under curve (AUC) = 0.62,
