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

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant, incurable disease characterized by the expansion of monoclonal terminally differentiated plasma cells in the bone marrow. MM is consistently preceded by an asymptomatic monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance, and in the absence of myeloma defining events followed by a stage termed smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM), which finally progresses to active myeloma if signs of organ damage are present. The reciprocal interaction between tumor cells and the tumor microenvironment plays a crucial role in the development of MM and the establishment of a tumor-promoting stroma facilitates tumor growth and myeloma progression. Since myeloma cells depend on signals from the bone marrow microenvironment (BMME) for their survival, therapeutic interventions targeting the BMME are a novel and successful strategy for myeloma care. Here, we describe the complex interplay between myeloma cells and the cellular components of the BMME that is essential for MM development and progression. Finally, we present BMME modifying treatment options such as anti-CD38 based therapies, immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), CAR T-cell therapies, bispecific antibodies, and antibody-drug conjugates which have significantly improved the long-term outcome of myeloma patients, and thus represent novel therapeutic standards.
