Prognostic and clinicopathological value of soluble programmed cell death ligand-1 (sPD-L1) in patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma: a meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Annals of medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundPrevious studies have explored whether soluble programmed cell death ligand-1 (sPD-L1) can be used to predict the prognosis of patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL); however, no consistent results have been obtained. Consequently, we conducted the present meta-analysis to identify the precise significance of sPD-L1 in predicting the prognosis of PTCL.
methodsWe searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library until July 31, 2024. The value of sPD-L1 in predicting PTCL prognosis was examined by combining the hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
resultsSeven articles involving 445 patients were included in this study. Based on our pooled findings, increased sPD-L1 was associated with dismal overall survival (OS) (HR = 4.22, 95%CI = 1.89-9.43,
conclusionAccording to the present meta-analysis, higher sPD-L1 levels were significantly correlated with poor OS and inferior PFS in patients with PTCL. Additionally, high sPD-L1 levels were also associated with clinical features representing the development of PTCL.
