Steps towards a Multiple Myeloma Cure?
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Multiple myeloma survival has increased in last 20 years because of new treatments, better clinical management due to novel diagnostic tools such as imaging, and better understanding of the disease, biologically and genetically. Novel drugs have been introduced that act with different therapeutic mechanisms, but so have novel therapeutic strategies such as consolidation and maintenance after autologous stem cell transplant. Imaging (such as PET-CT and MRI) has been applied at diagnosis and after therapy for minimal residual disease monitoring. Multiparametric flow and molecular NGS may detect, with high-sensitivity, residual monoclonal plasma cells in the bone marrow. With this novel therapeutic and biological approach, a considerable fraction of multiple myeloma patients can achieve durable remission or even MGUS-like regression, which can ultimately lead to disease disappearance. The big dogma, "Myeloma is an incurable disease", is hopefully fading.
