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

We encountered a case of acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML), with extramedullary leukemia (EML) and a masked type of the variant translocation t(8;21)(q22;q22). Morphologically, the AML M2 subtype according to the French-American-British (FAB) classification was present. Phenotypically, leukemic cells were negative for CD19 and positive for CD56. Clinically, the case showed chemo-refractoriness and a poor outcome. The initial karyotypic interpretation was t(8;9)(q22;q34) on G-banding. Multiplex-fluorescence in situ hybridization (multiplex-FISH) analysis revealed a three-way translocation involving chromosomes 8, 9, and 21, and identified a masked type of variant t(8;21)q22;q22) translocation. The karyotype was finally determined as 45,X,-Y,der(8)t(8;21)(q22;q22), der(9)(8;9)(q22;q34), and der(21)t(9;21)(q34;q22). Results of FISH using the AML1/ETO probe and detection of the AML1/ETO fusion transcripts by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) support the karyotype as well as the sequence of the PCR product. Additionally, C-KIT mutation was detected.
