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

A 59-year-old male patient was diagnosed as multiple myeloma in 2005 and received chemotherapy consisting of thalidomide, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone. The patient subsequently received high-dose melphalan followed by autologous stem cell transplantation and maintenance therapy with thalidomide. During the follow-up, the patient developed fever and cytopenias in 2012. The work up revealed 55% blasts in the marrow with myeloid phenotype leading to a diagnosis of acute myeloma leukaemia (AML). The karyotype was normal (46,XY) on conventional cytogenetics. The therapy was initiated, however, the patient expired within 1 month of diagnosis. The treatment related factors like alkylating agents are usually taken as the responsible agents for therapy-related AML, however, recent studies have proposed a multifactorial pathogenesis of leukaemic transformation in multiple myeloma.
