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

Imatinib is the frontline therapy for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) management. Most of the CML patients achieve major responses, but a proportion (nearly 25-35%) of them develop drug resistance. Molecular monitoring using quantitative real-time PCR at regular intervals according to European LeukemiaNet (ELN) helps in the assessment of long-term outcomes in imatinib-treated CML patients. Eighty-four CML patient samples (42 at diagnosis and 42 at 3-month intervals from the same patients) were analyzed for Bcr-Abl transcript levels. Quantification results revealed that the patients with <10% Bcr-Abl levels at 3 months had higher rates of complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) and optimal responses compared to patients with >10% Bcr-Abl levels (P < 0.0001). Patients with >10% Bcr-Abl levels were found to have 25.0% of suboptimal response and 3.57% of failure to imatinib at standard dose. Hence, the present study confirms that early molecular monitoring at 3 months after imatinib initiation helps in predicting the concurrent cytogenetic response and treatment optimization in CML patients.
