Persistence of minimal residual disease assessed by multiparameter flow cytometry is highly prognostic in younger patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

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
backgroundPredicting outcomes for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) on the basis of pretreatment predictors has been the cornerstone of management. Posttreatment prognostic factors are increasingly being evaluated.
methodsAmong 280 younger patients who were treated with intermediate-dose cytarabine (total ≥ 5 g/m
resultsOne hundred sixty-six patients had samples available 1 to 2 months after induction at the time of complete remission (CR), and 79% became negative for MRD, with an MRD-negative status associated with an improvement in relapse-free survival (RFS; P = .0002) and overall survival (OS; P = .0002). One hundred sixteen were evaluated for their MRD status during consolidation, and 86% were negative, with an MRD-negative status associated with a significant improvement in RFS (P < .0001) and OS (P < .0001). Sixty-nine patients were evaluated for their MRD status after completion of all therapy, and 84% were negative, with an MRD-negative status associated with an improvement in RFS (P < .0001) and OS (P < .0001). In a multivariate analysis including age, cytogenetics, response (CR vs CR with incomplete platelet recovery/incomplete blood count recovery), and MRD, achieving an MRD-negative status was the most important independent predictor of RFS and OS at response (P = .008 and P = .0008, respectively), during consolidation (P < .0001 for both), and at the completion of therapy (P < .0001 and P = .002, respectively).
conclusionsAchieving an MRD-negative status according to multiparameter flow cytometry is associated with a highly significant improvement in the outcomes of younger patients with AML receiving cytosine arabinoside plus idarubicin-based induction and consolidation regimens.
