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

purposeLymphoma is a significant pediatric cancer, following acute leukemia and malignant brain tumors. Traditional diagnostic and staging methods, such as biopsies and the Ann Arbor system, may have limitations in accuracy and invasiveness. This systematic review aims to critically evaluate the utility of fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography ([

methodA systematic search of PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science was conducted (2011-2024) using keywords related to pediatric lymphoma and PET. Data were extracted on study design, demographics, imaging protocols, tracer dosing, and quantitative PET parameters.

resultsThirty-one studies met the eligibility criteria. Quantitative analysis primarily relied on the standardized uptake value (SUV), with additional use of metabolic tumor volume and total lesion glycolysis. Across diagnostic, staging, and follow-up phases, [
