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

Acute lymphocytic leukaemia (ALL) is a heterogeneous group of disorders that result from the clonal proliferation and expansion of malignant lymphoid cells in the bone marrow, blood and other organs. Distinct clinicopathological ALL entities have been identified, resulting in the adoption of risk-oriented treatment approaches. Advances in ALL therapy have led to long-term survival rates of >80% in children. However, only approximate, approximately 30-40% of adults achieve long-term disease-free survival. Contemporary ALL treatment programmes include induction, intensified consolidation, maintenance phases and CNS prophylaxis. The optimal treatment of Philadelphia chromosome-positive patients requires the addition of BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitors, such as imatinib, whereas allogeneic stem-cell transplantation remains the preferred approach for high-risk patients in first remission. Since only approximate, approximately 38% of adult ALL patients are free of disease 5 years after diagnosis and the outcome of salvage chemotherapy is very poor (complete remission rates of 20-30%, median survival of 3-6 months), novel agents are desperately required. Of those currently in clinical studies, the outlook for sphingosomal vincristine, pegylated asparaginase (pegaspargase), liposomal annamycin, ABT-751, pemetrexed, talotrexin, nelarabine and the novel BCR-ABL kinase inhibitors is discussed.
