Global burden of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in the elderly: a population-based study using GBD 2021.
Article in Annals of hematology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Elderly people are facing an increasing burden of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. However, accurate information on the NHL burden among elderly people remains limited. On the basis of the Global Burden of Diseases 2021, we described the global burden of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in people aged ≥ 65 years and estimated the effects of age, period, and birth cohort on disease burden. The estimated number of prevalent cases among people aged ≥ 65 years was 1,147,321 worldwide in 2021. The age-standardized prevalence rate was 148.21 per 100,000 population. There were 306,296 new cases and 158,813 deaths. The age-standardized rates of incidence and mortality were 59.20 and 21.46 per 100,000 population, respectively. The disease burden was greater in men than in women, and it varied across regions. High-sociodemographic index countries recorded the highest age-standardized incidence and mortality rates, while low-sociodemographic index countries exhibited relatively low incidence rate but high mortality rate. From 1990 to 2021, the incidence and prevalence tended to increase, whereas mortality and disability-adjusted life years tended to decrease. Age effects tended to increase overall mortality risk with increasing age. Period effects showed improvements in mortality after 2004, and cohort effects revealed progressively lower mortality risks in successive birth years after 1922. It is estimated that the age-standardized incidence rate will be relatively stable, whereas the age-standardized mortality rate is expected to decline rapidly by 2035. A focus on elderly men and the implementation of region-specific improvements in clinical diagnosis and treatment are needed.
