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

Background: We aim to analyze the efficacy and safety of Venetoclax (Ven) added to cladribine + cytarabine + granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) ± idarubicin or mitoxantrone (CLAG ± Ida/Mito) regimen as a salvage treatment of relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (RR-AML). Methods: A single-center, retrospective, cohort study was performed. Patients with RR-AML, being treated with CLAG ± Ida/Mito with versus without Ven, were retrospectively studied. The endpoints of this study were to evaluate the rate of composite complete remission (CRc), measurable residual disease (MRD), event-free survival (EFS), overall survival (OS), and relapse between CLAG and CLAG + Ven groups. Results: Sixty-nine patients were included, with a median age of 37 (range, 18-65) years. Thirty-one patients underwent one cycle of salvage treatment of CLAG ± Ida/Mito with Ven and 38 without. In the CLAG + Ven group, 24 (77.4%) patients acquired response, including 22 (71.0%) with composite complete remission (CRc) and 15 (48.4%) MRD-negative CRc, which was significantly higher than those (CRc 47.4%, Conclusions: Ven added to CLAG ± Ida/Mito might improve the outcome of the patients with RR-AML, with well toleration, and a randomized controlled trial is needed to explored.
