Silent inactivation of asparaginase in Japan: results of the prospective ALL-ASP19 trial.
Trial report in International journal of hematology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Silent inactivation (SI) of L-asparaginase (ASP) is a phenomenon by which a neutralizing antibody for ASP (AAA) decreases ASP activity (ASA) in patients without a clinical allergy to ASP. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) has a poor prognosis in patients with SI. Therefore, measurement of ASA levels, not AAA levels, is needed to identify patients with SI. We herein report the results of the prospective clinical trial ALL-ASP19, the first study in Japan to measure ASA and AAA to identify patients with SI. A total of 110 newly diagnosed ALL patients were enrolled, and ASA levels were measured three times during ALL treatment. Besides the 12 patients who discontinued the study, 32 were excluded due to inappropriate frequency and timing of ASA measurements and inappropriate ASP dosing. The remaining 66 patients were analyzed, and 3 patients with SI (4.5%) were identified. The incidence of SI is lower in Japan than in other countries. AAA was detected in all patients with SI, but four of the seven patients with AAA did not develop SI. Clinical characteristics did not significantly differ between patients with and without SI. Therefore, ASA levels must be measured to identify patients receiving insufficient ASP treatment.
