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

AML diagnostics, initially based solely on morphological evaluation, now relies on multiple disciplines to reach its full potential. Only by integrating the results of cytomorphology, cytochemistry, immunophenotyping, cytogenetics and molecular genetics it is possible to fulfil WHO classification and ELN prognostication systems. Especially molecular genetics has gained a lot of interest over the last decade, mainly through the introduction of next generation sequencing (NGS). NGS application ranges from the investigation of single genes and panels to even whole exomes, transcriptomes and genomes. In routine AML diagnostics panels are the preferred NGS methodology. Here, we will review the power and limitations of NGS in the context of diagnosis, prognosis and precision medicine. Due to high dimensionality, NGS data interpretation is challenging but it also offers a unique investigatory chance and the opportunity to apply data mining techniques such as artificial intelligence. We will also reflect on how the incorporation of the improved knowledge base into routine diagnostics can pave the way for better treatment and more cure in AML.
