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

Solid organ transplant (SOT) has transformed the survival and quality of life of patients with end-organ dysfunction. Lifelong need for immunosuppressive medications prolongs life expectancy, but results in altered immune function and is associated with a higher risk of certain malignancies, including chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). In this article, we report on six patients, aged 41-79 years, diagnosed with CML, from 3 to 132 months post-various organ transplants and treated with different tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), including first generation (i.e., imatinib) and second generation (i.e., dasatinib and nilotinib). Use of second-generation TKIs has not been previously reported in this population. In these six cases, treatment with different TKIs in SOT patients was feasible, well tolerated and achieved good efficacy, which was maintained in extended follow-up, as well.
