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

aimsTo assess a panel of antibodies on Bouin's fixed bone marrow trephine (BMT) biopsies. These biopsies are widely used in routine diagnosis of various haematological malignancies and may be the sole material available in many centres; however, information regarding the immunostaining of this material is lacking.

methodsBiopsies were taken from 72 patients presenting with various haematological malignancies (leukaemia, 38; lymphoma, 14; multiple myeloma, 20). A panel of antibodies was assessed on Bouin's fixed BMT biopsies by the alkaline phosphatase-antialkaline phosphatase method.

resultsThree B (MB2, LN-2, Ki-B5) and two T cell lineage antibodies (UCHL-1, CD3-r) reliably identified lymphoid cells, while MPO-r, Leu-M1/CD15, and KP-1/CD68 recognised cells from the myeloid or histiocytic/macrophage series. Reed-Sternberg cells were stained by LN-2, Leu-M1, and CD30. Antibodies specific for plasma cells (VS38) and hairy cells (DBA.44) gave a variable pattern of staining. Among the proliferation markers, proliferative cell nuclear antigen but not Ki-67 related antibodies were effective.

conclusionThis study presents a panel of antibodies with reactivity not restricted to common fixatives that are also suitable for Bouin's fixed BMT biopsies.
