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

purposeHigh-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) is the cornerstone of the therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). However, severe adverse events are frequently reported despite standard supportive cares. Therefore, we aim to develop a new strategy to individualize HD-MTX and improve patient safety.

methodsA retrospective study was conducted in which toxicity were evaluated in 134 patients with 461 HD-MTX treatment courses. All of the patients experienced standard supportive cares. Exposure-toxicity analysis was conducted to obtain the target concentration and area under the curve (AUC) of MTX. Population PK model was established for dose simulations.

resultsA high rate of severe toxicities (78.1%) was observed. Patients with C
