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

Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is an aggressive malignancy with a poor prognosis, and there is little data available from the Chinese population. This retrospective study included 115 patients diagnosed with ATLL who were treated across five hospitals in China from June 2011 to December 2022. The median age at diagnosis was 53 years. Several genes involved in T-cell receptor-induced nuclear factor κB (TCR-NF-κB) signaling were commonly mutated, including PLCG1, CIC, PRKCB, CARD11, and IRF4. Eighty-seven patients received chemotherapy. Of these, 13 received a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) (allogeneic-HSCT, n=9; autologous-HSCT, n=4) after chemotherapy. Following initial multiagent chemotherapy using EPOCH/CHOEP and other regimens, the overall response rates were 80.6% (complete response [CR], 44.4%) and 42.8% (CR, 14.2%), respectively. The 4-year survival rates (median survival time in days) for EPOCH/CHOEP (n=43), HSCT (n=13), and CHOP-based regimens (n=31) were 12.7% (138), 30.8% (333), and 0% (66), respectively. Lymphadenopathy, EPOCH/CHOEP, and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were independent prognostic protective factors in patients with aggressive ATLL. Chinese patients exhibit a higher incidence of aggressive-type ATLL, sharing similar genetic alterations with Japanese patients. Etoposide-based chemotherapy (EPOCH or CHOEP) remains the preferred choice for aggressive ATLL, and upfront allogeneic HSCT should be considered in all eligible patients.
