Longitudinal bone marrow evaluations for myelodysplasia in patients with myeloma before and after treatment with lenalidomide.
Article in Leukemia & lymphoma, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Lenalidomide (LEN) treatment in multiple myeloma (MM) results in a superior outcome. However, there is concern for increased myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia (MDS/AML) associated with LEN. Thus, bone marrow morphology and cytogenetics studies from 40 patients were evaluated for early signs of MDS prior to therapy, during therapy and at follow-up. Newly diagnosed patients with MM treated with LEN and dexamethasone (LD) alone or followed by autologous stem cell transplant (LD/ASCT), or patients with relapsed/refractory MM treated with LEN, bendamustine and dexamethasone (BLD) were included. One patient developed MDS. Baseline prevalence of mild morphologic myelodysplasia was highest in pretreated patients with MM (BLD, 71%), but was also seen in newly diagnosed patients (LD and LD/ASCT, 17%). The prevalence of myelodysplasia did not increase over time. Thus, this study did not reveal rapidly emerging MDS in 39 of 40 patients with MM treated with LEN. The development of MDS in one patient suggests that longer follow-up is needed for all.
