Impact of BCR-ABL1 Transcript Type on Outcome in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Patients Treated With Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors: A Pairwise and Bayesian Network Meta-Analysis.

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
purposeTo evaluate the impact of BCR-ABL1 transcript type on outcome in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).
methodsPubMed, Embase and Cochrane library were systematically searched for relevant studies. Outcomes assessed were: major molecular response (MMR) at 6, 12, 18 and 60 months, deep molecular response (DMR) at 6, 12, 18 and 60 months, event-free survival (EFS), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and treatment-free remission (TFR). Odds ratios (ORs) and hazard ratios (HRs) were estimated and pooled using a random effect model.
resultsA total of 16 retrospective cohort studies involving 5,411 patients were included in this study. Compared with e13a2 transcripts, there was a statistically significant advantage for patients with e14a2 (alone or with co-expressed e13a2) in terms of MMR and DMR at 6, 12 and 18 months. This benefit was sustained up to 5 years for patients with e14a2 transcripts (OR 1.60, 1.23-2.07 and 2.21, 1.71-2.87, respectively), but not for patients with both transcripts. The expression of e14a2 also improved EFS (HR 0.71, 0.53-0.94) and OS (HR 0.76, 0.57-1.00) throughout treatment period. Importantly, having e14a2 transcripts were associated with a higher rate of TFR (OR 2.94, 1.70-5.08) in CML patients attempting TKI discontinuation. Bayesian network meta-analysis showed that e14a2 had the highest probability to be the most favorable transcript type for all outcomes, followed by both and e13a2.
conclusionsThe expression of e14a2 had a positive impact on MMR, DMR, EFS, OS and TFR. We suggest that in the future, the e14a2 transcript can be added to the list of prognostic factors to guide clinical decisions in treating CML.
