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

In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the achievement of a morphological complete remission (CR) is an important milestone on the road to cure. Still, the majority of patients who achieve a morphological CR will eventually relapse. Thus, morphological means are not sensitive enough to detect clinically relevant tumor burdens left behind after therapy. Over the last years, several methodologies, particularly multiparameter flow cytometry and polymerase chain reaction, have emerged that can detect, quantify, and monitor submicroscopic amounts of leukemia cells ("minimal residual disease", MRD). Newer techniques, such as next-generation sequencing, have not only changed our understanding of the molecular pathogenesis and clonal heterogeneity of AML but may also be used for MRD detection. Increasing evidence indicates that MRD could play an important role in dynamically refining disease risk and, perhaps, serve to fine-tune post-remission therapy in a risk-adapted manner, although the latter concept awaits validation through well-controlled trials. In this review, we discuss the current use of MRD measurements during AML treatment and highlight future perspectives.
