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

backgroundNon-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) comprises a broad range of hematologic cancers originating from lymphoid tissues. It ranks among the 10 most frequently diagnosed cancers in the United States (US).

aimsThis study aims to analyze trends in the incidence of adult NHL in the US from 2000 to 2020, considering factors such as age, sex, race/ethnicity, and histological subtypes. Additionally, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on these incidence trends was explored. METHODS AND

resultsData from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results program were utilized to examine the age-standardized incidence rates (ASIR) of NHL. Joinpoint regression modeling was applied to calculate the annual percent change (APC) and the average annual percent change (AAPC) of ASIRs over the period from 2000 to 2020. From 2000 to 2019, a total of 962 535 NHL were reported among all ages in the US. They were mostly B-cell NHL (93.59%), in Non-Hispanic Whites (73.31%), and individuals aged 70-79 (25.94%). The overall ASIRs were 55.58 (55.43, 55.73) for men and 36.00 (35.89, 36.11) for women. There was a notable decline in ASIRs following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic from 2019 to November 2020, with a percentage change of -10.52% (-11.60, -9.45). The overall AAPC for adult NHL was 0.45% (0.33, 0.62) in men and 0.38% (0.21, 0.57) in women, indicating a minimal yet significant increase.

conclusionNHL incidence increased over 2000-2019. These trends in incidence rates exhibited variation across different races, sexes, age groups, and histological subtypes. COVID-19 led to a decrease in NHL incidence.
