1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by the Philadelphia chromosome and uncontrolled granulocyte production. While autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is commonly associated with lymphoproliferative disorders such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia, its occurrence in CML is rare, with only a few documented cases. Here, we report a case of concurrent chronic-phase CML and AIHA. Case Presentation: We present a 34-year-old female diagnosed with warm AIHA as the first presentation of CML. Diagnostic workup, including peripheral smear, revealed hemolysis with elevated lactate dehydrogenase and a positive direct antiglobulin test (DAT), along with a positive Philadelphia chromosome, confirming CML. Steroid therapy successfully managed the AIHA, leading to normalization of hemoglobin levels and subsequent tapering and discontinuation of steroids. Conclusion: While AIHA is a rare cause of anemia in CML, it should be considered during anemia evaluation, particularly in cases of CML relapse.
