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

Type I cryoglobulinemia is typically associated with hematological malignancies such as B-cell lymphomas and plasma cell neoplasms. Its treatment basically targets underlying hematological malignancies, and the prognosis remains unsatisfactory. Despite several reports of type I cryoglobulinemia treated with bortezomib-based regimens, little is available on the treatment of bortezomib-resistant cases. We report a case of severe type I cryoglobulinemia associated with plasma cell neoplasm, refractory to bortezomib and daratumumab, which was successfully managed with a combination of carfilzomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone (KCd therapy). No sign of relapse has been seen for more than 3 years with maintenance therapy with ongoing carfilzomib. This case highlights the potential efficacy of carfilzomib-based regimens in bortezomib-resistant type I cryoglobulinemia, offering a promising option for cases refractory to conventional treatments.
