Minimal residual disease detection by mutation-specific droplet digital PCR for leukemia/lymphoma.
Article in International journal of hematology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Minimal residual disease (MRD) is usually defined as the small number of cancer cells that remain in the body after treatment. The clinical significance of MRD kinetics is well recognized in treatment of hematologic malignancies, particularly acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Real time quantitative PCR targeting immunoglobulin (Ig) or T-cell receptor (TCR) rearrangement (PCR-MRD), as well as multiparametric flow cytometric analysis targeting antigen expression, are widely used in MRD detection. In this study, we devised an alternative method to detect MRD using droplet digital PCR (ddPCR), targeting somatic single nucleotide variants (SNVs). This ddPCR-based method (ddPCR-MRD) had sensitivity up to 1E-4. We assessed ddPCR-MRD at 26 time points from eight T-ALL patients, and compared it to the results of PCR-MRD. Almost all results were concordant between the two methods, but ddPCR-MRD detected micro-residual disease that was missed by PCR-MRD in one patient. We also measured MRD in stored ovarian tissue of four pediatric cancer patients, and detected 1E-2 of submicroscopic infiltration. Considering the universality of ddPCR-MRD, the methods can be used as a complement for not only ALL, but also other malignant diseases regardless of tumor-specific Ig/TCR or surface antigen patterns.
