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

backgroundThe "accelerated" chronic lymphocytic leukemia (aCLL) is a relatively rare form of CLL progression. The expanded proliferation centers in aCLL have been associated with adverse prognostic features and propensity to more aggressive behavior with shorter survival. CASE: An atypical case of aCLL with distinct features is described. A 66-year-old female presented with a marrow replacing process associated with multiple osseous metastases and trivial lymphadenopathy. Bone biopsy revealed an unspecified low-grade B cell lymphoproliferative disorder that demonstrated a suboptimal response to standard chemotherapy. Subsequent lymph node biopsy demonstrated findings consisted with aCLL. The distinguishing features of the case were, in addition to bone involvement, the lagging peripheral lymphocytosis and a striking pattern of the chromatin clumping with a prominent "shattered" appearance reminiscent of Pelger-Huet-like dysplastic anomaly. A targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) assay detected pathogenic mutations in TP53 and SF3B1. In contrast to chemotherapy, the case demonstrated an excellent response to imbruvica.

conclusionThe noted peculiarities could potentially distinguish this case as a novel, rare variant of aCLL.
