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

Reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) can cure patients with AML in CR. However, relapse after RIC allo-HCT may indicate heterogeneity in the stringency of CR. Strict definition of CR requires no evidence of leukemia by both morphologic and flow cytometric criteria. We re-evaluated 85 AML patients receiving RIC allo-HCT in CR to test if a strict definition of CR had direct implications for the outcome. These patients had leukemia immunophenotype documented at diagnosis and analyzed at allo-HCT. Eight (9.4%) had persistent leukemia by flow cytometric criteria at allo-HCT. The patients with immunophenotypic persistent leukemia had a significantly increased relapse (hazard ratio (HR): 3.7; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.3-10.3, P=0.01) and decreased survival (HR: 2.9; 95% CI: 1.3-6.4, P<0.01) versus 77 patients in CR by both morphology and flow cytometry. However, the pre-allo-HCT bone marrow (BM) blast count (that is, 0-4%) was not significantly associated with risks of relapse or survival. These data indicate the presence of leukemic cells, but not the BM blast count affects survival. A strict morphologic and clinical lab flow cytometric definition of CR predicts outcomes after RIC allo-HCT, and therefore is critical to achieve at transplantation.
