Presence of bone marrow fibrosis in multiple myeloma may predict extramedullary disease.
Article in International journal of hematology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
We analyzed the incidence of bone marrow fibrosis in 91 newly diagnosed Japanese multiple myeloma (MM) patients and evaluated the impact of fibrosis on clinical characteristics and therapeutic outcomes. Thirty-four (37%) patients had greater than grade 1 bone marrow fibrosis. The presence of bone marrow fibrosis did not affect laboratory data, the percentage of plasma cells in bone marrow or cytogenetic findings. It also had no significant effect on response to initial treatment, engraftment after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or overall survival. Interestingly, the incidence of extramedullary disease at diagnosis was significantly higher in patients with bone marrow fibrosis (p = 0.006). Analysis of biological characteristics of MM cells revealed that expression of CD49e, an alpha5/beta1 integrin, was downregulated in MM cells derived from patients with bone marrow fibrosis (p = 0.026). When seven of the original 34 patients were re-evaluated for fibrosis grading after treatment, five (71%) showed a reduction in fibrosis. Our present findings suggest that the presence of bone marrow fibrosis may predict development of extramedullary disease in MM.
