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

Renal dysfunction is a common comorbidity of multiple myeloma. However, tumor lysis syndrome is a rare cause of renal dysfunction in multiple myeloma. Elotuzumab is a newly US FDA-approved monoclonal antibody used in the treatment of refractory multiple myeloma. To our knowledge, elotuzumab has not been associated with a case of tumor lysis syndrome. We present the case of a patient who developed clinical tumor lysis syndrome 1 week after treatment with elotuzumab accompanied by renal failure with hyperphosphatemia, hyperkalemia, and profound hyperuricemia. His course was further complicated by significant epistaxis from the accumulation of dabigatran in acute renal failure. In spite of treatment with rasburicase and hemodiafiltration, the patient decompensated and eventually died. Risk factors for the development of tumor lysis syndrome in multiple myeloma are discussed.
