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

Despite excellent results in frontline therapy, particularly in pediatric age, refractory Burkitt lymphoma still remains a therapeutic challenge, with dismal outcome. The prognosis is very poor, ranging from less than 10% to 30-40%, with longer survival only in transplanted patients. On account of the paucity of data, mostly reporting on small series of patients, with heterogeneous characteristics and salvage treatments, at present it is impossible to draw definitive conclusions on the treatment of choice for this difficult to treat subset of patients. New insights into Burkitt lymphoma/leukemia cell biology have led to the development of new drugs, currently being tested, directed at different specific targets. Herein, we describe the results so far reported in refractory Burkitt lymphoma/leukemia, with standard treatments and hematopoietic stem cell transplant, and we review the new targeted drugs currently under evaluation.
