Review in Current oncology reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06099912 (Individualized Dynamic Frailty-tailored Therapy), which is not on this map. Cited by 22 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

purpose of reviewGiven the median age at diagnosis of 69, multiple myeloma (MM) is commonly identified among elderly individuals. Over-treatment of the frail may lead to unnecessary morbidity, while under-treatment of fit elderly patients may prevent improvement in organ function; both instances reducing quality of life. Here, we summarize assessments of frailty and include considerations in managing newly diagnosed elderly MM patients. RECENT

findingsEligibility criteria for studies of anti-myeloma agents have traditionally relied on performance status and comorbidities; however, geriatric and myeloma-specific frailty assessments are beginning to be incorporated for more accurate stratification of patients for treatment. The IMWG and R-MCI scores are validated metrics that predict survival in elderly MM patients. In addition, dose-attenuated induction regimens and conditioning before autologous transplant may decrease morbidity in elderly MM patients. Although MM remains incurable, multi-drug regimens have the ability to prolong survival of both untreated and relapsed elderly patients. Older patients require a highly individualized approach since they may have preexisting organ dysfunction, worse frailty scores, and variable goals of care.
