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

Objectives: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a group of clonal hematological disorders with a diverse clinico-hematological profile. Studies in India have shown a different biology from the West. This study aimed to assess the clinicopathologic profile of MDS patients, classify them according to the World Health Organization classification system, categorize them into International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) and the revised IPSS prognostic subgroups, and evaluate the treatment outcome. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 48 patients diagnosed with MDS from January 2017 to December 2019 from Rajagiri Hospital, India. Clinical, hematological, and cytogenetic features were analyzed. The patients were stratified according to the IPSS and revised IPSS and were followed-up for a minimum of six months. Results: The patients most affected were those in the seventh decade of life. We found a slight female preponderance and a mean age of 57.5 years in females and 67.7 years in males. Anemia was the most common manifestation of MDS. On the other hand, thrombocytopenia was found to be the least common cytopenia. MDS with multilineage dysplasia was the most common subtype. Cytogenetic abnormalities were seen in 29.5% of cases. Most of the patients were in the low-risk prognostic categories. Conclusions: Our patients were older when compared to those of other Indian studies, with most in the low-risk categories which were like Western data.
