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

Fifteen cases of high grade primary gastric non-Hodgkin's lymphomas were studied using comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) and/or fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) techniques. A total of 10 cases of diffuse large cell lymphoma (DLCL) with no histologically identifiable or previous history of low grade mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma components were examined, four by CGH and validated by FISH, and the remaining six by FISH alone. All 10 tumors showed gains in chromosome 12. Other recurring CGH findings in DLCL included copy number gains of 1q and deletions of 6q. Five cases of high grade tumors with low grade MALT components (HGM) were also examined, three by CGH and validated by FISH and two by FISH only. Only one in five HGM showed gains of chromosome 12. Other recurring CGH findings in HGM included +7q and +11q. We conclude that high grade gastric lymphomas of DLCL type were associated with gains in chromosome 12. The change was much less frequent (P < 0.01) in the HGM type, which had a percentage similar to that observed in previously reported cytogenetics/FISH studies on low grade MALT lymphomas. Our findings suggested that many DLCL were not derived from transformation of low grade MALT lymphomas.
