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

We prospectively compared outcomes of autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) versus high-dose cytarabine (HiDAC) consolidation as post-remission therapy for favorable- and intermediate-risk acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) in first complete remission (CR1). Two-hundred-forty patients under 65 years with AML-M1, M2, M4, or M5 subtypes were enrolled. After induction, 153 patients did not undergo randomization, while the remaining 87 who achieved CR1 were prospectively randomized to HiDAC (n = 45) or ASCT arm (n = 42). In the HiDAC arm, 43 patients completed three cycles of HiDAC, whereas in ASCT arm 22 patients completed two cycles of consolidation consisting of intermediate-dose cytarabine plus mitoxantrone or etoposide followed by ASCT. The three-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate was 41% in HiDAC and 55% in ASCT arm (p = 0.25). Three-year overall survival (OS) rates were 77 and 68% (p = 0.67). Incidence of relapse was 54 and 41% (p = 0.22). There was no significant difference in nonrelapse mortality between two arms (p = 0.88). Patients in the ASCT arm tended to have higher DFS rates and lower relapse rates than patients in HiDAC; however, there was no significant improvement in OS in patients with favorable- and intermediate-risk AML in CR1. Patients with AML are not benefited by the intensified chemotherapy represented by ASCT.
