Long-term outcome and prognostic factors of elderly patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia.
Article in Cancer science, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Studies focused on elderly acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) are relatively limited. To evaluate prognostic impact in elderly APL, we compared the long-term outcome of elderly APL patients (60-70 years) with younger patients (15-59 years) treated with all-trans retinoic acid combined with anthracycline and cytarabine in the Japan Adult Leukemia Study Group (JALSG) APL97 study. Of 283 evaluable patients, 46 (16.3%) were elderly who had more frequent lower platelet (P = 0.04), lower albumin (P = 0.006) and performance status 3 (P = 0.02), higher induction death rate due to differentiation syndrome (P = 0.03), and non-relapse mortality (NRM) during consolidation therapy (P = 0.001). Overall survival was significantly inferior in elderly patients (P = 0.005), but disease-free survival and cumulative incidence of relapse were not. Better therapeutic approaches should be considered to reduce NRM during induction and consolidation therapy in elderly APL. This study was registered at http://www.umin.ac.jp/ctrj/ under C000000206.
