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

Although cytogenetic abnormalities at diagnosis are recognized as an important prognostic factor in patients with Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)-negative acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), the prognostic impact has not been evaluated in allogeneic stem cell transplant (allo-SCT) recipients. Thus, we assessed 373 Ph-negative ALL patients who underwent allo-SCT. The high-risk (HR) group included those with t(4;11), t(8;14), low hypodiploidy, and complex karyotype, and the standard risk (SR) group included all other karyotypes. Among the 204 patients who underwent a transplant during the first remission (167 in the SR group and 37 in the HR group), the overall survival (OS) rates were similar between these groups (64.1% vs. 80.0% at 5 years, respectively; p = 0.12). Conversely, among the 106 patients who underwent a transplant while not in remission (84 in the SR group and 22 in the HR group), patients in the SR group showed a significantly superior OS rate compared to the HR group (15.4% vs. 4.5% at 5 years, respectively; p = 0.022). These results suggested that treatment outcomes of Ph-negative ALL patients with HR cytogenetic abnormalities may improve following allo-SCT, especially in the first remission. Innovative transplant approaches are warranted in patients who are not in remission.
