Prognostic Significance of the Myelodysplastic Syndrome-Specific Comorbidity Index (MDS-CI) in Patients with Myelofibrosis: A Retrospective Study.
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In myelofibrosis, comorbidities (CMs) add prognostic information independently from the Dynamic International Prognostic Scoring System (DIPSS). The Myelodysplastic Syndrome-Specific Comorbidity Index (MDS-CI) offers a simple tool for CM assessment as it is calculable after having performed a careful history and physical examination, a small routine chemistry panel (including creatinine and liver enzymes) and a limited set of functional diagnostics. To assess the prognostic impact of the MDS-CI in addition to the DIPSS and the Mutation-Enhanced International Prognostic Scoring System (MIPSS)-70, we performed a retrospective chart review of 70 MF patients who had not received allogeneic stem cell transplantation (primary MF, n = 51; secondary MF, n = 19; median follow-up, 40 months) diagnosed at our institution between 2000 and 2020. Cardiac diseases (23/70) and solid tumors (12/70) were the most common CMs observed at MF diagnosis. Overall survival (OS) was significantly influenced by the MDS-CI (median OS MDS-CI low (n = 38): 101 months; MDS-CI intermediate (n = 25): 50 months; and high (n = 7): 8 months;
