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

introductionBiclonal lymphoid disorders, when two distinct lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD) co-exist, are rare (incidence of 1.4%) and associated with a poor prognosis. NOTCH1 mutations occur in 10% of CLL at diagnosis, associated with a short disease-free interval and increased risk of Richter's transformation. We hypothesised that the incidence of NOTCH1 mutations in CLL with a second LPD may be increased, because the mutation occurs early in leukaemogenesis, permitting clonal divergence.

methodsWe identified 19 patients with biclonal LPD at diagnosis: 11 with CLL and a second LPD (group A) and 8 with a second distinct CLL (group B). NOTCH1 mutation analysis was performed and clinical outcome investigated.

resultsTen of 19 (52%) were NOTCH1 mutated: 5 in group A (45%) and 5 in group B (62.5%) with a favourable clinical outcome observed among this cohort with 28.7 (range 1-99) months of follow-up.

conclusionIn conclusion, we identified a significant (52%) incidence of NOTCH1 mutations in CLL in the context of biclonal LPD, associated with an indolent clinical course.
