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

Precision dosing aims to optimize and customize pharmacological treatment at the individual level. The integration of pharmacometric models with Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithms is currently under investigation to support the personalization of adaptive dosing therapies. In this study, this hybrid technique is applied to the real multiobjective precision dosing problem of givinostat treatment in polycythemia vera (PV) patients. PV is a chronic myeloproliferative disease with an overproduction of platelets (PLT), white blood cells (WBC), and hematocrit (HCT). The therapeutic goal is to simultaneously normalize the levels of these efficacy/safety biomarkers, thus inducing a complete hematological response (CHR). An RL algorithm, Q-Learning (QL), was integrated with a PK-PD model describing the givinostat effect on PLT, WBC, and HCT to derive both an adaptive dosing protocol (QL
