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

The benefit of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) aged >60 years remains a matter of debate, notably when performed in first complete remission (CR1). To clarify this issue, the French Innovative Leukemia Organization (FILO) performed a 10-year real-world time-dependent analysis. The study enrolled patients between 60 and 70 years of age with AML in CR1 after intensive chemotherapy with intermediate (IR) or unfavorable (UR) risk according to the European LeukemiaNet (ELN) 2010 classification. The impact of allo-HSCT was analyzed through three models: (1) time-dependent Cox; (2) multistate for dynamic prediction; and (3) super landmark. The study enrolled 369 (73%) IR and 138 (27%) UR patients with AML, 203 of whom received an allo-HSCT. Classical multivariate analysis showed that allo-HSCT significantly improved relapse-free survival (RFS; hazard ratio [HR] [95% confidence interval (CI)], 0.47 [0.35-0.62]; P < .001) and overall survival (OS; HR [95% CI], 0.56 [0.42-0.76]; P < .001), independently of the ELN risk group. With the multistate model, the predicted 5-year probability for IR and UR patients to remain in CR1 without allo-HSCT was 8% and 1%, respectively. Dynamic predictions confirmed that patients without allo-HSCT continue to relapse over time. Finally, the super landmark model showed that allo-HSCT significantly improved RFS (HR [95% CI], 0.47 [0.36-0.62]; P < .001) and OS (HR [95% CI], 0.54 [0.40-0.72]; P < .001). allo-HSCT in CR1 is reported here as significantly improving the outcome of fit older patients with AML. Long-term RFS without allo-HSCT is very low (<10%), supporting allo-HSCT as being the best curative option for these patients.
