Influence of Prognostic Factors on OverallSurvival in Myelodysplastic Syndromes.
Article in Materia socio-medica, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundAccurate prediction of a patient's prognosis is useful to define the risk posed by the disease. Age, gender, peripheral blood cytopenia, proportion of bone marrow (BM) blasts, performance status, comorbidities, transfusion dependence, specific karyotype abnormalities and molecular biomarkers can refine the prediction of prognosis in MDS.
aimto assess the influence of the some prognostic factors like age, gender, cytopenia, BM blast percentage, transfusion dependence, ferritin, hemoglobin (Hb), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), albumin and specific karyotype abnormalities in myelodysplastic syndromes on overall survival (OS). PATIENTS AND
methodswe retrospectively analyzed the cohort of 108 patients diagnosed between 1.1.2011 and 31.12.2013 at the University Clinic of Hematology, Ss Cyril and Methodius University, Skopje, Macedonia. They were evaluated for clinical and hematologic features at diagnosis and at leukemic transformation.
resultsin the study group 62 were man and 46 women. Male to female ratio was 1.35 to 1. The differences in OS between men and women were significant (p = .03015). The mean age at diagnosis was 66,6 years. According to the age OS was 16,4 months. FAB subtypes influenced OS significantly (p = .03015). OS inversely correlated with BM blast percentage (p= .02327). Cytopenia had no impact on OS (p=.33755). Hb as a whole and groups with different levels of Hb had no influence on OS (p = .12142) and (p= .07535), respectively. The group with ferritin <500 µg/L had better OS (p=.04720). Transfusion dependence, LDH and albumin had no impact on OS. Leukemic transformation was noticed in 10 (9,3%) patients. Mortality was 36,1%.
conclusiongender, FAB subtypes, BM blast percentage and the serum levels of ferritin had an influence on OS, while age, hemoglobin level, transfusion dependence, LDH and albumin had no impact on OS.
