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

Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) administration after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) may carry a survival benefit in Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL). Therefore, we investigated whether TKI prophylaxis for negative-minimal residual disease (MRD) after HSCT would improve patient outcomes in this nationwide retrospective cohort study. We included patients with Ph+ ALL who underwent their first allogeneic HSCT between 2001 and 2016, received TKI before HSCT, and achieved negative-MRD status within 180 days after HSCT. Of 850 patients for inclusion, 50 patients received TKI prophylaxis, mostly imatinib or dasatinib (median dose: 400 mg with imatinib and 40 mg with dasatinib). In a multivariate analysis, disease status at HSCT was the sole risk factor for relapse (hazard ratio, 3.58; P < .001 for positive-MRD with complete remission [CR] and hazard ratio, 6.13; P < .001 for active disease). TKI prophylaxis was not associated with a decreased risk of relapse or superior overall survival in either the whole cohort or in the analysis limited to negative-MRD or positive-MRD with CR1 at HSCT. Meanwhile, TKI prophylaxis limited to dasatinib might be associated with a decreased risk of relapse (hazard ratio, 0.34; P = .140), unlike imatinib. Alternative strategies using new-generation TKI for high-risk patients are warranted to improve the outcomes after allogeneic HSCT.
