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.

Abstract

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection worsens the prognosis of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), possibly through epigenetic mechanisms. We conducted a prospective, single-arm, open-label clinical trial (NCT04661943) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of chidamide maintenance therapy in patients with HBV+ DLBCL who achieved complete or partial response after first-line treatment. Seventy patients with HBV+ were enrolled, including 30 receiving chidamide (20 mg twice weekly for two years) and 40 controls who declined treatment, with a propensity score-matched HBV- cohort for comparison. Chidamide maintenance significantly improved progression-free survival (
