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.

Abstract

abstractThe prognostic impact of monocytic differentiation in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) receiving venetoclax (Ven) and azacitidine (Aza) remains unclear. In a prospective cohort of 86 newly diagnosed patients with AML treated with Ven-Aza, we used multiparametric flow cytometry (MFC) to define monoblasts as AML blasts coexpressing ≥2 monocytic markers (CD4, CD36, and CD64) per European LeukemiaNet (ELN) guidelines. Patients with higher monoblasts/CD45+ proportions had lower complete response rates (odds ratio, 0.24; P = .005) and significantly shorter overall survival (OS; 4.0 vs 14.9 months; P = .003). A ≥10% monoblasts/CD45+ threshold, identified via maximally selected rank statistics, stratified patients into monoblasthigh (≥10%) and monoblastlow (<10%) groups. MFC reclassified 20% of French-American-British (FAB) non-M4/5 and 15% of FAB M4/5 cases into monoblasthigh and monoblastlow groups, respectively. Multivariable analysis confirmed monoblasthigh status as an independent adverse prognostic factor for OS (hazard ratio [HR], 1.95; P = .023), with a particularly strong impact in ELN 2024 favorable-risk patients (HR, 2.81; P = .024). Our findings highlight monocytic differentiation, assessed via MFC, as a key predictor of Ven-Aza resistance and poor survival, independent of genetic classification. Given its availability in routine diagnostics, MFC-based monocytic assessment could improve AML risk stratification and treatment decisions in patients eligible for less intensive therapies. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT05326919.
