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 examined the association of residual bone-marrow plasma cells (PCs) and International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) response assessment in light-chain-only multiple myeloma (LCMM) and intact immunoglobulin multiple myeloma (IIMM) using multicolour flow cytometry (MFC). We identify considerable differences in bone-marrow neoplastic PC levels between IIMM and LCMM for the same IMWG response categories. Furthermore, even in the same IMWG response category, residual neoplastic PC levels differed considerably over a logarithmic scale range However, normalization of the free light-chain ratio is associated with deeper response (< 10
