Emerging data on thrombopoietin receptor agonists for management of chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia.
Review in Expert review of hematology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
introductionChemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia (CIT) is a common complication of cancer treatment, frequently leading to reduced relative dose intensity, and is associated with reduced survival. Given the lack of FDA-approved therapies for CIT, thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RAs) have received significant attention for treatment and prevention of CIT. AREAS COVERED: This review will summarize the development of prior agents for treatment of CIT, discuss the existing literature investigating the use of TPO-RAs in CIT primarily in patients with solid tumor malignancies, and offer insights on the future direction of TPO-RAs and other therapeutics for CIT. EXPERT OPINION: In alignment with NCCN guidelines, we recommend that patients with CIT participate in a clinical trial for consideration of TPO-RA treatment or consider off-label use of romiplostim when participation in clinical trials is not possible. The literature to date supports the use of TPO-RAs for treatment of persistent CIT. Further data is needed to describe the long-term efficacy, safety, and prescribing practices of TPO-RAs in a diverse patient population with a variety of tumor types and chemotherapy regimens in addition to exploring the underlying biology of CIT.
