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

Multiple myeloma (MM) is an incurable malignancy of plasma cells. The introduction of thalidomide was a milestone in the treatment of MM. Thalidomide analogues termed immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) have been developed that are more effective and have less toxicity than thalidomide. The role of lenalidomide in relapsed MM has been well defined. This review discusses the data regarding the upfront use of lenalidomide with dexamethasone or in multidrug combinations, as well as its potential role as maintenance therapy. It also reviews our experience with pomalidomide, a new IMid with remarkable activity in relapsed, refractory MM.
