Imatinib mesylate versus allogeneic BMT for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in first chronic phase.
Article in Bone marrow transplantation, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Imatinib mesylate (IM) is now first-line treatment for CML. To study the results of treatment with IM after IFN failure/intolerance versus allogeneic BMT (allo-BMT), we retrospectively analyzed 264 patients treated for CML in first chronic phase in three different institutions. Over a 6-year period (2001-2006), 174 patients received IM after failure of or intolerance to IFN. During the same period of time, 90 patients received an allo-BMT from an HLA-matched sibling (n=83) or an unrelated donor (n=7). The IM group was older (41 versus 33 years, P<0.001). Five-year EFS was 62% among patients receiving IM and 52% among patients undergoing allo-BMT (P=0.0002). OS at 5 years was 93% for IM-treated patients and 59% for patients undergoing allo-BMT (P<0.0001). Allo-BMT cannot be considered as first-line treatment for CML patients in first chronic phase.
