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

purposeThis single center retrospective study aimed to investigate the factors associated with central nervous system (CNS) involvement of primary vitreoretinal lymphoma (PVRL).

methodsClinical features of patients with PVRL (Group 1), those diagnosed with vitreoretinal lymphoma (VRL) after primary CNS lymphoma diagnosis (Group 2), and those concurrently diagnosed with CNS lymphoma and VRL (Group 3), were compared. The main outcomes included sex, age, types of treatment, survival, visual acuity, diagnostic methods, VRL recurrence, ocular manifestations, and interleukin levels in the aqueous humor.

resultsGroups 1, 2, and 3 included 66 eyes in 38 patients, 29 eyes in 18 patients, and 14 eyes in 8 patients, respectively. Group 3 had shorter overall survival (OS) than Groups 1 and 2 (P = 0.042 and P = 0.009, respectively). The three groups did not differ in progression-free survival (P = 0.060). The 5-year survival rates of Groups 1, 2, and 3 were 56.5%, 44.0%, and 25.0%, respectively (P = 0.001). Patients with CNS involvement in Group 1 exhibited VRL recurrence (P < 0.001), high interleukin-10 (P = 0.024), and sub-retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) infiltration (P = 0.009). Patients experiencing VRL recurrence in Group 1 tended to show CNS involvement (P < 0.001).

conclusionPatients concurrently diagnosed with CNS lymphoma and VRL had a shorter OS and a lower 5-year survival rate. In patients with PVRL, the recurrence of VRL, high interleukin-10, and sub-RPE infiltration were associated with CNS involvement.
