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

We aimed to analyze the characteristics and response rates of different treatment modalities in hairy cell leukemia patients over 20 diagnosed as hairy cell leukemia (HCL). Clinical data, response rates and survival outcome of the patients who were diagnosed with HCL were retrospectively analyzed. Fifty-two patients with a median age of 50 (28-87) years were enrolled in the study. 38 patients (73%) were male and male to female ratio was 2.7. First line therapy was cladrabine in 36 patients (69.2%). The overall response rate was 97%. CR and PR rates were 86.1% and 11.1%, respectively. Interferon was used in 10(19.2%) patients who were diagnosed before 2000s years. CR and PR rates were 70% and 30%, respectively. Although the CR rates were lower in IFN group, this difference could not be reached statistically significance (
