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

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is one of the classic types of myeloproliferative neoplasms. It typically manifests with leukocytosis, but rarely with isolated thrombocytosis. Here we describe a unique case of isolated thrombocytosis as an initial presentation of CML in a 21-year-old woman, where the BCR-ABL1 fusion gene was detected in bone marrow (BM) aspiration and biopsy specimen after a negative peripheral blood (PB) fluorescence in situ hybridization testing. It is crucial to pursue workup for patients with isolated thrombocytosis through testing for the presence of the BCR-ABL fusion gene or the Philadephia chromosome in both PB and the BM in order to distinguish CML from essential thrombocythemia.
