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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveMyelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are myeloid neoplasms characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis due to stem cell abnormalities. Monosomy 7q aberrations are a common cytogenetic abnormality in MDS. Specifically, an unbalanced translocation der(1;7)(q10;p10) [der(1;7)] has been identified in MDS patients, which is a monosomy 7q aberration variant like -7/del(7q). However, knowledge of der(1;7)'s features remains limited. Existing studies have compared the clinical and genetic characteristics of der(1;7) to those of -7/del(7q) but yielded inconsistent findings. Accordingly, we conducted meta-analyses comparing der(1;7) to -7/del(7q).
methodsPublications were searched from the following databases up to January 10, 2023: Pubmed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane, and ClinicalTrials.gov. Eligible studies were assessed for risks of bias. Relevant data were extracted from included studies and analyzed using random-effects models. Publication bias was evaluated and sensitivity analyses were performed.
resultsThe comparative meta-analyses included 405 MDS patients with der(1;7) from nine studies. The analysis revealed that der(1;7) was associated with a greater male preponderance (86.1% vs. 68.3%, Odds Ratios (ORs) 2.007, p < 0.01) than -7/del(7q), lower platelets counts compared to del(7q), higher hemoglobin levels than -7, lower absolute neutrophil counts, and higher percentage of patients with non-excess blasts (66.9% vs. 41.3%, ORs 2.374, p = 0.01) in comparison with -7/del(7q). The der(1;7) existed more as a sole karyotype aberration (55.6% vs. 37.0%, ORs 2.902, p = 0.02), co-occurred more often with +8 (22.7% vs. 4.2%, ORs 5.714, p = 0.04) whereas less -5/del(5q) (1.5% vs. 41.3%, ORs 0.040, p < 0.01) and complex karyotype (7.3% vs. 54.8%, OR 0.085, p < 0.01). The der(1;7) was associated with higher frequencies of RUNX1 (40.8% vs. 12.3%, ORs 4.764, p < 0.01), ETNK1 (28.1% vs. 2.5%, ORs 42.106, p < 0.01) and EZH2 (24.8% vs. 6.9%, ORs 3.767, p = 0.02) mutations, but less TP53 mutation (2.4% vs. 45.3%, ORs 0.043, p < 0.01). Moreover, der(1;7) patients had longer time to progression (Hazard Ratios (HRs) 0.331, p = 0.02), better overall survival (OS) than -7 patients (HRs 0.557, p < 0.01), but similar OS with del(7q) patients (HRs 0.837, p = 0.37).
conclusionThe findings revealed distinct clinical, cytogenetic, and molecular characteristics distinguishing der(1;7) from -7/del(7q), indicating der(1;7) defines a unique subtype within MDS with monosomy 7q. These findings support classifying der(1;7) as a separate MDS entity in future.
