Article in Clinical epigenetics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07060001 (Evaluation of the Efficacy of Hypomethylating Agent Versus Standard Intensive Chemotherapy Induction Based on 5hmC - a Novel, Blood Epigenetic Marker for Assessing Measurable Residual Disease in Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia), which is not on this map.

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.

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.

Abstract

Measurable residual disease (MRD) is an important biomarker in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, MRD cannot be detected in many patients using current methods. We developed a highly sensitive 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) signature in cell-free DNA by analyzing 115 AML patients and 86 controls. The 5hmC method detected MRD in 20 of 29 patients with negative MRD by multiparameter flow cytometry and 11 of 14 patients with negative MRD by molecular methods. MRD detection by the 5hmC method was significantly associated with relapse-free survival. This novel method can be used in most AML patients and may significantly impact AML patient management.
