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

Large granular lymphocytic leukemia (LGLL) is characterized by the clonal proliferation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes or NK cells. Standard first-line immunosuppressive treatments have limitations, achieving complete remission (CR) rates of up to 50%. Immune system dysregulation is implicated in LGLL. Promising results for thalidomide, an immunomodulatory drug, combined with prednisone and methotrexate (TPM), were observed in our pilot study. This multicenter study evaluated the efficacy and safety of a thalidomide, prednisone, and methotrexate (TPM) regimen in 52 symptomatic, methotrexate- and thalidomide-naive LGLL patients from June 2020 to August 2022. Thalidomide (100 mg daily for up to 24 months), prednisone (0.5-1.0 mg/kg every other day, tapered after 3 months), and methotrexate (10 mg/m
