RETRACTED: Pneumonia in Patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Treated with Venetoclax-Based Regimens: A Real-World Analysis of the Polish Adult Leukemia Group (PALG).
Article in Cancers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. 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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesPatients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) are susceptible to infections that can affect their clinical outcomes.
aimsThe aims of this study were to assess the following: (1) the incidence of pneumonia in CLL patients treated with venetoclax-based regimens in a real-world setting, (2) the risk factors for event-free survival (EFS), and (3) overall survival (OS).
methodsThis multicenter study included 322 patients from eight centers. Univariable and multivariable analyses (MVA) were performed, with the development of pneumonia during venetoclax-based treatment and OS as outcomes.
resultsThe most common complication was neutropenia (59%). During treatment with venetoclax-based regimens, 66 (20%) patients developed pneumonia-50 (23%) patients in the rituximab-plus-venetoclax (R-VEN) group and 13 (16%) patients in the obinutuzumab-plus-venetoclax (O-VEN) group (
conclusionsOur real-world study showed that pneumonia during venetoclax treatment occurs more frequently than reported in registration trials and has a negative impact on OS, especially in patients with R/R CLL who are treated with R-VEN. Neutropenia is not a risk factor for pneumonia.
