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

Patients with Down syndrome (DS) display a unique spectrum of malignancies, with a 10- to 20-fold higher risk of acute leukemias, and a markedly lower incidence of solid tumors. This review discusses the current understanding of the basis for this distinctive pattern of cancer incidence and the clinical and biologic features of the malignant disorders most frequent in DS individuals: transient myeloproliferative disease, acute megakaryoblastic leukemia, and acute lymphoblastic leukemia. We also review distinctive pharmacogenetic issues, highlighting the differential chemosensitivity and toxicity profiles of DS patients compared with the general population, and epidemiologic studies of protective and adverse environmental risk factors for the development of leukemia.
