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

Phenotypic characterization of neoplastic cells from 5 patients with hairy cell leukemia (HCL) was performed with 29 monoclonal and 6 polyclonal (anti-Ig) antibodies using immunoperoxidase staining of fresh frozen splenic tissue. Monotypic Ig was expressed in 4 cases, one case was non-expressive. Strong staining was obtained in all cases by monoclonal antibodies (MAs) specific for 3 pan-B-lymphocyte antigens (by anti-B 1, To 15, anti-Leu 12). Five other B-cell related antigens detectable with appropriate MAs (BA-1, anti-B2, DAKO-C3 b R, Tü 1, 38.13) were absent in all cases. The stainings with 13 T-cell associated MAs (OKT 3, OKT 4, anti-Leu 3 a, OKT 6, OKT 8, Tü 68, OKT 10, anti-Lyt 2, Tü 71, OKT 11, anti-Lyt 3, Tü 14, Tü 33) were all negative. Stainings with 4 MAs recognizing myelocytic and/or monocytic antigens (OKM 1, anti-Mo 1, anti-Mo 2, 3 C4) were also negative. We included 14 frozen biopsies with B-type chronic lymphatic leukemia (B-CLL) into our immunohistological study in order to establish phenotypic differences between HCL and B-CLL. Five MAs (Tü 1, anti-Lyt 2, Tü 71, BA-1 and anti-B2) gave consistently negative staining in HCL cases but positive staining in most or all B-CLL cases. The study provides significant evidence for the B-cell nature of HCL and also establishes important phenotypic differences between HCL and B-CLL.
