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

The prognostic significance of KIT mutations in core-binding factor acute myeloid leukemia (CBF-AML), including inv(16) and t(8;21) AML, is uncertain. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of the effect of KIT mutations on the complete remission (CR) and relapse rates and overall survival (OS) of CBF-AML. PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library were searched and relevant studies were included. Negative effect was indicated on relapse risk of CBF-AML (RR [relative risk], 1.43; 95%CI [confidence interval], 1.20-1.70) and t(8;21) AML (RR, 1.70; 95% CI, 1.31-2.21), not on OS of CBF-AML (RR, 1.09; 95% CI, 0.97-1.23), CR (OR [odds ratio], 0.95; 95% CI, 0.52-1.74), relapse risk (RR, 1.12; 95% CI, 0.90-1.41) or OS (RR, 1.03; 95% CI, 0.90-1.18) of inv(16) AML. Subgroup analysis of t(8,21) AML showed negative effect of KIT mutations on CR (OR, 2.03; 95%CI: 1.02-4.05), relapse risk (RR, 1.89; 95%CI: 1.51-2.37) and OS (RR, 2.26; 95%CI: 1.35-3,78) of non-Caucasians, not on CR (OR, 0.61; 95%CI: 0.19-1.95) or OS (RR, 1.12; 95%CI: 0.90-1.40) of Caucasians. This study indicates KIT mutations in CBF-AML to be included in the initial routine diagnostic workup and stratification system of t(8,21) AML. Prospective large-scale clinical trials are warranted to evaluate these findings.
