Refractory immune thrombocytopenic purpura associated with IgM monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance: Successful treatment with tirabrutinib plus conventional therapies.
Article in EJHaem, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
When immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is secondary to malignant diseases, chemotherapy is expected to improve the platelet count (PC) as well. Herein, we report a case of a 72-year-old man with ITP refractory to standard therapies. IgM monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) was determined as an underlying disease. After bendamustine and rituximab (BR) therapy was found inadequately effective, tirabrutinib, a novel Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor, was initiated, and the PC normalised subsequently. Surveillance of underlying diseases with which effective therapies are available may help manage refractory ITP, and IgM-MGUS is potentially a targetable underlying disease with this newly available drug.
