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

backgroundIbrutinib is a Bruton's tyrosine-kinase (BTK) inhibitor that is approved as a second-line treatment in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). While recent trials have demonstrated impressive results for ibrutinib, there remains a paucity of real-world data on its use in the clinical setting.

methodsIn this single-center study carried out at Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals, we retrospectively compared outcomes in 38 patients with relapsed CLL who received ibrutinib versus those who received conventional first- and second-line therapies.

resultsOur results demonstrate improved progression-free survival (PFS,

conclusionWhilst there is robust evidence for improved outcomes with ibrutinib, we find that survival in patients with del13q14.3 is reduced and that the rate of adverse events and discontinuation in clinical practice is higher than anticipated from clinical trials.
