Survival outcomes and treatment experience of 124 patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma.

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
purposePrimary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare malignancy of the central nervous system with high invasiveness. There is little consensus on the treatment of PCNSL. This study retrospectively studied data from PCNSL patients in a single center to summarize treatment experience and explore prognostic factors.
methodsSurvival curves were drawn using the Kaplan-Meier method and prognostic factors were analyzed using Cox's hazards model.
resultsIn multivariate analysis, cerebrospinal fluid lactic acid dehydrogenase (CSF LDH; p = 0.005 and p = 0.002), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR; p = 0.014 and p = 0.038), and completion of four cycles of induction therapy (p < 0.001and p < 0.001) were significant and independent predictors of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS), respectively.
conclusionOn the basis of this study, we propose that PCNSL patients should receive early induction therapy with sufficient cycles. Subsequent consolidation therapy can prevent relapses and improve survival. In patients with PCNSL, the independent prognostic factors for OS and PFS were CSF LDH level, NLR, and full cycles of induction therapy.
