Review in Cancer journal (Sudbury, Mass.). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Despite a prevailing view that advances in cancer therapy will come through selective targeting of enzymes encoded by mutated oncogenes responsible for the neoplastic phenotype, recent advances in the treatment of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) have instead exploited knowledge of its biology. Indeed, CLL cells depend on interactions with cells and soluble factors present in the tumor microenvironment for proliferation and survival. B-cell receptor signaling and chemokine-receptor signaling play prominent roles. Elucidation of these signaling pathways has defined physiologic targets for drugs, such as ibrutinib, which inhibit Bruton tyrosine kinase and are therapeutically effective. The characteristic high-level expression of BCL2 in CLL that can enhance leukemia-cell survival has now become an Achilles heel targeted by clinically effective drugs such as venetoclax. Here we discuss advances in such targeted therapy and highlight other disease attributes, such as the distinctive expression of ROR1, which may be targeted for clinical benefit, alone or in combination with other targeted therapies.
