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

Bortezomib is a proteasome inhibitor that can be effective in the treatment of refractory and relapsed multiple myeloma. Recently, severe pulmonary complications associated with bortezomib therapy have been reported in Japan. Because bortezomib has not yet been approved for general use in Japan and is imported by attending physicians on the request of patients, The Japanese Society of Hematology and The Japanese Society of Clinical Hematology sent urgent questionnaires to the councilors of both societies to explore the situation and the details of pulmonary complications associated with bortezomib therapy. Clinical details were available for 46 patients who had been treated with personally imported bortezomib in Japan. Seven patients (15.2%), including 3 who died from respiratory failure, showed complications definitely or probably caused by bortezomib. Of the 7 patients, 6 had a prior history of stem cell transplantation (SCT), whereas only 14 of 39 patients without lung injury had received SCT treatment (P = .033, Fisher exact test). Multivariate analysis revealed that the concomitant use of corticosteroids might reduce the risk of lung injury (P = .024; odds ratio, 0.055) and that a previous SCT might increase the risk (P = .042; odds ratio, 13.140). We summarized these data from questionnaires for a limited Japanese cohort and therefore do not know the precise incidence of lung injury linked to fatal progression. Thus, future verification concerning this matter is warranted after the approval of bortezomib for use in Japan. Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of severe pulmonary complications associated with bortezomib therapy.
