The inherited genetic contribution and polygenic risk score for risk of CLL and MBL: a narrative review.
Review in Leukemia & lymphoma, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a neoplasm of B-cells in the blood and monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis (MBL) is a precursor state to CLL. This narrative review provides an overview of the genetic studies that identified 43 common variants associated with risk of CLL among individuals of European ancestry. Emerging studies found that ∼50% of these variants are associated with MBL risk. Moreover, the polygenic risk score (PRS) calculated from these CLL variants has been shown to be a robust predictor for both CLL and MBL risk among European ancestry individuals but a weak predictor among African ancestry individuals. By summarizing these genetic studies, we conclude that additional studies are needed in other race/ethnic populations to identify race-specific susceptibility variants, that functional studies are needed to validate the biological mechanisms of the variants, and that the clinical utility of the PRS is limited until preventive strategies for CLL are developed.
