Evaluation of azacitidine in patients with transplant-ineligible myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myeloid leukemia with myelodysplasia-related changes in a Japanese clinical setting.
Article in Oncology letters, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Patients with high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) treated with azacitidine (AZA) have exhibited improved overall survival. However, information on AZA in real-world settings is limited. The present study retrospectively analyzed 85 patients with MDS treated with AZA. Complete response was achieved in 24% of cases and hematologic improvement in 29%. Severe adverse events (grade ≥3) included neutropenia and infection. Multivariate analysis identified higher revised international prognostic scoring system (IPSS-R) and male sex as significant factors affecting survival. However, the present study did not identify any significant associations between patient characteristics and response to AZA. In conclusion, AZA could produce a hematologic response in ~53% of patients with MDS. Furthermore, IPSS-R may reflect MDS prognosis. Further studies are required to establish the criteria for identifying patients likely to obtain maximum benefit from AZA treatment.
