Review in Leukemia, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02428517 (A Prospective Study Evaluating the Efficacy of the Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation With Antithymocyte Globulin), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

Several studies have demonstrated that monitoring of minimal residual disease (MRD) in childhood and adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) significantly correlates with clinical outcome. MRD detection is particularly useful for evaluation of early treatment response and consequently for improved front-line therapy stratification. MRD information is also significant for children undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and those with relapsed ALL. Currently, three highly specific and sensitive methodologies for MRD detection are available, namely multiparameter flow cytometric immunophenotyping, real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RQ-PCR)-based detection of fusion gene transcripts or breakpoints, and RQ-PCR-based detection of clonal immunoglobulin and T-cell receptor gene rearrangements. In this review, characteristics, pitfalls, advantages and disadvantages of each MRD technique are critically discussed. The special emphasis is put on interlaboratory standardization, especially in view of the results obtained within the European collaborative BIOMED-1, BIOMED-2, and Europe Against Cancer projects and recent developments by European Study Group on MRD detection in ALL and EuroFlow Consortium. Standardized MRD techniques form the basis for stratification of patients into the risk groups in new treatment protocols mainly in childhood ALL. Only the results of these studies can answer the question whether MRD-based treatment intervention is associated with improved outcome.
