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
objectiveTo explore the efficacy and safety of ixazomib and lenalidomide combined with dexamethasone (DXMS) in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM).
methodsA total of 80 patients with newly diagnosed MM were randomly divided into the ID group (ixazomib + DXMS, n=40) and the RD group (lenalidomide + DXMS, n=40). All patients were given DXMS orally on the 1st, 8th, 15th, and 22nd day of the treatment cycle (20 mg each time). The patients in the ID group also received 4 mg of ixazomib citrate capsules orally on the 1st, 8th, and 15th day of the treatment cycle, whereas those in the RD group received 25 mg of lenalidomide capsules orally from the 1st to the 21st day of the treatment cycle continuously. The primary outcome measure was progression-free survival (PFS) within 5 years, and the secondary outcome measures were overall survival (OS), overall response rate (ORR), quality of life, and safety.
resultsThe median PFS and median OS in the ID group were similar to those in the RD group (30.03 and 50.21 months vs. 25.04 and 46.33 months, both P>0.05). The ID group had higher complete remission rate (13 cases vs. 5 cases, P<0.05), but similar ORR compared with the RD group (90.00% vs. 82.50%, P>0.05). After treatment, the pain intensity assessed by Numeric Rating Scale and the functional impairment measured by Karnofsky Performance Status Scale of the two groups were both relieved (both P<0.001), and no intergroup differences in these two markers were observed (both P>0.05). The incidence of grade 1-2 peripheral neuropathy in the ID group was higher than that in the RD group (30.00% vs. 20.00%, P=0.032). There were no differences in other adverse reactions between the two groups (all P>0.05).
conclusionCompared with the combination of lenalidomide and DXMS, ixazomib combined with DXMS can achieve higher complete remission rate and more improved PFS and OS in patients with newly diagnosed MM, which is a safe and effective method.
