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

backgroundLarge B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) encompasses a diverse group of aggressive lymphoid neoplasms, the most common of which is diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). A precise diagnosis is critical for determining prognosis and therapeutic strategies, particularly as new molecular subtypes and classification criteria have been introduced in the 5th edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of hematolymphoid tumors (WHO-HAEM5, 2022). Fine needle aspiration cytology is a safe and minimally invasive diagnostic tool for assessing lymphadenopathy and extranodal masses. SUMMARY: LBCLs are typically characterized by single cells with large nuclei, vesicular chromatin pattern, and prominent nucleoli. The diagnosis of LBCL and the distinction distinguishing between LBCL subtypes requires the integration of cytomorphologic features with ancillary techniques, including immunocytochemistry, flow cytometry, fluorescence in situ hybridization, and next-generation sequencing. KEY MESSAGES: This review synthesizes the cytologic features, immunophenotypic profiles, molecular signatures, and clinical implications of LBCL subtypes, highlighting recent advances in cytopathology and classification.
