Mutations of epigenetic modifier genes predict poor outcome in adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Article in Annals of hematology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Epigenetic modifier (EM) genes play important roles in the occurrence and progression of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). However, the prognostic significance of EM mutations in ALL has not yet been thoroughly investigated. This retrospective study included 205 adult patients with ALL engaged in a pediatric-type regimen. Based on targeted next-generation sequencing, they were divided into EM mutation group (EM-mut, n = 75) and EM wild-type group (EM-wt, n = 130). The EM-mut group showed a higher positive rate of minimal residual disease (MRD) on treatment day24 and before consolidation therapy (P = 0.026, 0.020). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that EM-mut was an independent adverse factor for overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) (HR = 2.123, 1.742; P = 0.009, 0.007). Survival analysis revealed that the OS and EFS rates were significantly lower in the EM-mut group than in the EM-wt group (3-year OS rate, 45.8% vs. 65.0%, P = 0.0041; 3-year EFS rate, 36.7% vs. 53.2%, P = 0.011). In conclusion, EM was frequently mutated in adult ALL and was characterized by poor response to induction therapy and inferior clinical outcomes.
