Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia: Recent advances in biology and therapy.
Review in Clinical advances in hematology & oncology : H&O, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (WM) is a B-cell disorder characterized by bone marrow infiltration with clonal lymphoplasmacytic cells (LPCs), along with an immunoglobulin M monoclonal gammopathy. Recent studies have led to several insights into disease biology as well as the development of an international staging system. Patients with asymptomatic macroglobulinemia should be observed without therapy. Options for frontline therapy include alkylating agents, nucleoside analogs, and rituximab, either as monotherapy or in combination. Although objective responses are common, complete remissions are infrequent. Several novel agents including proteasome inhibitors and thalidomide, as well as high-dose chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation are being incorporated into the therapeutic armamentarium in WM and show promising activity. This report provides an update on recent advances in biology and treatment of this disease.
