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

objectiveTo investigate the frequency of PD-1 and LAG-3-positive T cells in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) patients and its clinical significance.

methodsThis prospective observational study enrolled a total of 71 RRMM patients, as well as 70 MM patients (non-refractory) and 70 healthy individuals during January 2018 to March 2021. The frequency of circulating CD4

resultsSignificant higher 1-year mortality rate was found in RRMM patients compared with the MM patients. In both CD4

conclusionThe frequency of PD-1 and LAG-3-positive T cells is associated with the clinical severity and inflammation in RRMM patients, which may also serve as potential biomarkers for its diagnosis.
