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

backgroundBlastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell tumor (BPDCN) is a rare and highly invasive lymphohematopoietic tumor that originates from plasmacytoid dendritic cells. BPDCN has an extremely poor prognosis. Skin lesions are usually the first manifestation of BPDCN, although the tumor may also invade the bone marrow, lymph nodes, peripheral blood, and other parts of the body, leading to several other manifestations, requiring further differentiation through skin biopsy and immunohistochemistry. CASE SUMMARY: In the present paper, the cases of 2 patients diagnosed with BPDCN are discussed. The immunohistochemistry analysis of these 2 patients revealed positivity for CD4, CD56, and CD123. Currently, no standard chemotherapy regimen is available for BPDCN. Therefore, intensive therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia was applied as the treatment method for these 2 cases.

conclusionAlthough allogeneic bone marrow transplantation could be further effective in prolonging the median survival the ultimate prognosis was unfavorable. Future treatment modalities tailored for elderly patients will help prolong survival.
