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

Advances in our understanding of mechanisms of leukemogenesis and driver mutations in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) lead to a more precise and informative sub-classification, mainly of B-cell ALL. In parallel, in recent years, novel agents have been approved for the therapy of B-cell ALL, and many others are in active clinical research. Among the newly recognized disease subtypes, Philadelphia-chromosome-like ALL is the most heterogeneous and thus, diagnostically challenging. Given that this subtype of B-cell ALL is associated with a poorer prognosis, improvement of available therapeutic approaches and protocols is a burning issue. Herein, we summarize, in a clinically relevant manner, up-to-date information regarding diagnostic strategies developed for the identification of patients with Philadelphia-chromosome-like ALL. Common therapeutic dilemmas, presented as several case scenarios, are also discussed. It is currently acceptable that patients with B-cell ALL, treated with an aim of cure, irrespective of their age, be evaluated for a Philadelphia-chromosome-like signature as early as possible. Following Philadelphia-chromosome-like recognition, a higher risk of resistance or relapse must be realized and treatment should be modified based on the patient's specific genetic driver and clinical features. However, while active targeted therapeutic options are limited, there is much more to do than just prescribe a matched inhibitor to the identified mutated driver genes. In this review, we present a comprehensive evidence-based approach to the diagnosis and management of Philadelphia-chromosome-like ALL at different time-points during the disease course.
