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

Background: Patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) who experience progression of disease within 24 months (POD24) of receiving first-line therapy had a significantly poorer prognosis than that without early progression. Due to the established prognostic relevance of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) parameters in FL and their clinical accessibility, we aimed to investigate the predictive role of PET/CT metabolism and dissemination parameters in POD24 for FL. Methods: The POD24 status of 155 patients who underwent PET/CT examinations at initial diagnosis was evaluated. Various baseline characteristics were collected, along with PET/CT-derived parameters, including the maximum tumor dissemination (Dmax), maximum standardized uptake (SUVmax) value, total metabolic tumor volume (TMTV), and total lesion glycolysis (TLG). A Cox proportional regression analysis was used to identify potential risk predictors of POD24. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to define the optimal cut-off values. Results: In our cohort, POD24 was observed in 21 (13.5%) FL patients. The univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses revealed that elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was a significant predictor of POD24. Additionally, survival analyses based on the cut-off values showed that the risk of POD24 was significantly increased in patients with a Dmax >64.24 cm, SUVmax >11.23, TMTV >144.16 cm Conclusions: PET/CT parameters have prognostic value for POD24 in FL. The risk model, which combined PET/CT parameters with clinical indicators, could improve risk stratification and help guide therapeutic decisions.
