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

The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of marrow blasts at transplant in adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. We analyzed 478 patients who underwent allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). All patients were divided into five subgroups according to the percentage of blasts: <2 % (n = 361), ≥2 to<3 % (n = 64), ≥3 to <5 % (n = 28), ≥5 to <12 % (n = 11), and ≥12 % (n = 4). After a median follow-up of 59.5 months (range 3.3-125.9 months) for survivors, patients with higher marrow blasts at transplant showed lower overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). In multivariate analyses, OS and DFS did not show significant differences with blast counts up to 12 %, compared with blast counts of <2 %; by contrast, the presence of >12 % marrow blasts was associated with significantly poorer OS and DFS. In the separate multivariate analyses by cytogenetic risk group, the impact of >12 % marrow blast on survival outcomes was observed in all risk groups. Thus, pre-transplant bone marrow status is an important prognostic factor for AML patients. In addition, the higher relapse rate in patients with >12 % marrow blasts may provide insights into the tolerable blast cell burden that can be overcome by the graft-versus leukemia effect.
