Comparison of Mitoxantrone in Combination with Intermediate-dose Cytarabine versus High-dose Cytarabine as Consolidation Therapies for Young Non-APL Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patients with Favorable and Intermediate Cytogenetics.
Observational study in Current medical science, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
In this study, we compared the efficacy of mitoxantrone in combination with intermediate-dose cytarabine (HAM) with that of high-dose cytarabine alone (HiDAC) as consolidation regimens in non-acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) acute myeloid leukemia patients with favorable and intermediate cytogenetics. A total of 62 patients from Shenzhen People's Hospital were enrolled in this study. All patients enrolled received standard induction chemotherapy and achieved the first complete remission (CR1). In these patients, 24 received HiDAC and 38 received HAM as consolidation. The median relapse free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were similar between these two consolidation regimens. Even in subgroup analysis according to risk stratification, the combination regimen conferred no benefit in longterm outcome in patients with favorable or intermediate cytogenetics. However, in patients receiving HAM regimen, the lowest neutrophil count was lower, neutropenic period longer, neutropenic fever rate higher, and more platelet transfusion support was required. HAM group also tended to have higher rate of sepsis than HiDAC group. According to our results, we suggest that combination treatment with mitoxantrone and intermediate-dose cytarabine has limited value as compared to HiDAC, even in young non-APL AML patients with favorable and intermediate cytogenetics.
