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

Here we describe the case of an infant incidentally diagnosed with congenital KMT2A-rearranged (KMT2A-r) B-cell ALL on Day of Life 4. He received the first dose of intrathecal methotrexate on DOL 5, and induction systemic therapy on DOL 6. He demonstrated morphologic remission at the end of induction but had positive bone marrow. Minimal residual disease (MRD) was 1.4%. He experienced isolated CNS disease after consolidation and immunotherapy. At 8 months of age he underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). At 14 months of age he had medullary and CNS relapse, and at 16 months of age underwent CD19 CAR-T therapy. At 6 years of age he remains in remission with tolerable developmental delays and a good quality of life.
