A Case of Acute Myeloid Leukemia Mimicking Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm: Utility of the Proposed Upcoming WHO-5 Diagnostic Criteria.

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
Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is an aggressive hematologic malignancy which is associated with a distinctive morphologic appearance. However, the morphology is not specific, and diagnostic characterization requires integration of immunophenotypic and genetic testing. We herein report a case of a 35-year-old female patient who presented with worsening cytopenia. A bone marrow aspirate identified medium-sized blastic cells with perinuclear microvacuoles ("pearl neckless"). Occasional blasts demonstrated a "hand mirror" appearance. Tandem flow cytometry showed an atypical population of dim CD45 events with expression of CD4, CD56, CD117, CD123, and monocytic markers such as CD64. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) showed evidence of a KMT2A rearrangement with an unknown partner on chromosome 19. Expression of MPO and muramidase was present. The final diagnosis was acute monocytic leukemia (AMoL). Due to the overlapping features of acute myeloid leukemia and BPDCN, the 5
