The clinical significance of ABCB1 overexpression in predicting outcome of CML patients undergoing first-line imatinib treatment.
Article in Leukemia, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 41 papers.
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
Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy results in excellent responses in the majority of patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia. First-line imatinib treatment, with selective switching to nilotinib when patients fail to meet specific molecular targets or for imatinib intolerance, results in excellent overall molecular responses and survival. However, this strategy is less effective in cases of primary imatinib resistance; moreover, 25% of patients develop secondary resistance such that 20-35% of patients initially treated with imatinib will eventually experience treatment failure. Early identification of these patients is of high clinical relevance. Since the drug efflux transporter ABCB1 has previously been implicated in TKI resistance, we determined if early increases in ABCB1 mRNA expression (fold change from diagnosis to day 22 of imatinib therapy) predict for patient response. Indeed, patients exhibiting a high fold rise (⩾2.2, n=79) were significantly less likely to achieve early molecular response (BCR-ABL1
