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

backgroundAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease. Prognosis and survival depend on several factors that determine tumor behavior and response to therapy. AML has a poor prognosis that depends on several factors: patient's age, gender, body mass index (BMI), baseline white blood cells count, and bone marrow blast (BMB) cell count at the time of diagnosis. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the prognostic role of these factors and their impact on outcomes, and how these prognostic factors may affect AML patients before and after induction chemotherapy.

methodsThe study design is an observational, retrospective record review. We included records of patients diagnosed with primary and secondary AML who received chemotherapy between 2013 and 2019 at King Abdulaziz University in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Data were extracted from medical records, entered into an Excel sheet (Microsoft Corp., Redmond, WA), and analyzed using SPSS Statistics, version 25 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY).

resultsForty-two AML patients who were started on chemotherapy were analyzed. The mean age at diagnosis was 35 ± 22.2 years; 52.4% were male. The ability to achieve the first remission varied according to age group; the 21-45 age group had the higher ability and survival rate of 75.0%
