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

Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is a condition that is highly variable in presentation but life-threatening for post-transplant, immunosuppressed patients. Current standard management in PTLD sees the use of a chemoimmunotherapy regimen similar to the management of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Here, we discuss the case of a 33-year-old male with a history of renal transplant, hemodynamically stable, who presented with fevers and night sweats lasting one month. Investigations revealed multiple masses in his liver, the largest of which was biopsied and revealed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. PTLD is an important malignancy in patients who have received immunosuppression, but the treatment is heterogeneous, based on subtype and patient status. This case, where the addition of polatuzumab to the standard rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and vincristine (R-CHOP) regimen led to favorable results, demonstrates the potential for a new standard treatment regimen for this disease.
