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

Primary cutaneous B-cell lymphoma encompass clinically heterogeneous entities. While primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg type (pcDLBCL-LT) is aggressive, primary cutaneous follicle centre lymphoma (pcFCL) and primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma (pcMZL) typically follow an indolent course. To clarify their pathophysiological basis, we perform single-cell RNA sequencing on pcFCL, pcMZL, and pcDLBCL-LT, alongside reactive B-cell rich lymphoid proliferations (rB-LP), gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, and systemic counterparts. Here we show that the indolent pcMZL, pcFCL, and rB-LP exhibit a persistent germinal centre reaction, not observed in pcDLBCL-LT or gastric MALT lymphoma. Further, pcMZL top expanded clones develop within lesions from naïve and not post-germinal centre B cells as currently presumed. Our data thus indicate that pcMZL and pcFCL, similar to rB-LP may be driven by (a yet unknown) antigen. While our data indicates that pcFCL exhibits some features of true lymphomas, it clearly supports the classification of pcMZL as a lymphoproliferative disease.
