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

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of diseases with varying genetic aberrations. Half of MDS patients have normal karyotype, obscuring the underlying condition indicating a need for new markers for improved diagnostics and prognosis. We performed a retrospective review of sequential MDS patients who underwent chromosomal genetic array testing (CGAT) between November 2008 and March 2014. Total Genomic Aberration (TGA) scores, with and without copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity (cnLOH), were compared to pathology and clinical data. Of 68 MDS participants, 50 patients (73%) had abnormal CGAT results. 32% showedcnLOH, 41% had no cnLOH but displayed copy number aberration (CNAs). Of 26 patients with normal cytogenetics, 46% had clonal abnormalities by CGAT. Abnormal CGAT results were associated with lower overall survival (P=0.04). Overall survival in patients with TGA above the median (68.6 Mb) was significantly inferior to those below the median (HR=2.9, 95% CI=1.3-6.8, P=0.01). Furthermore, there was an observed association between increased TGA and increased dysplastic lineages (Ptrend=0.003). CGAT studies provide important findings that extend beyond current standard testing. Clinical utility of CGAT includes improved diagnostic yield, correlation of extent of TGA and increased dysplastic features, and survival.
