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

Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) with del(5q) represents a unique WHO entity, which is often treated with lenalidomide according to standard clinical practice. Guidelines concerning treatment duration have thus far not been implemented, but rather comprise an indefinite therapy until loss of response. This review presents three red blood cell (RBC) transfusion-dependent MDS with del(5q) cases, starting with one rare case with an unbalanced translocation t(2;5), involving the breakpoint of del(5q) and loss of the 5q15-5q31 region. To the best of our knowledge, no comparable case has been described before with a response to lenalidomide. Strikingly, treatment-induced and maintained cytogenetic complete remission (cCR) in this patient. Furthermore, we report two cases of classical del(5q), in which lenalidomide was interrupted after a short period of lenalidomide therapy at the time cCR was achieved. Despite drug holiday cCR was maintained for seven and nine years, respectively. Then del(5q) re-emerged in the absence of novel molecular aberrations and re-treatment with lenalidomide could again achieve cCR in both cases. Together, this series presents three cases of personalized therapy of MDS with del(5q).
