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

Venetoclax with azacitidine is the standard of care for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are unfit for intensive chemotherapy; however, uncertainties remain regarding the treatment schedule, accurate prognostication, and outcomes for patients treated outside clinical trials. The option of venetoclax with low-dose cytarabine (LDAC) is also available; however, it is not clear for which patients it may be a useful alternative. Here, we report a large real-world cohort of 654 patients treated in 53 UK hospitals with either venetoclax and azacitidine (n = 587) or LDAC (n = 67). The median age was 73 years, and 59% had de novo AML. Most patients received 100 mg of venetoclax with an azole antifungal. In cycle 1, patients spent a median of 14 days in the hospital, and 85% required red cell transfusion, 59% platelet transfusion, and 63% required IV antibiotics. Supportive care requirements significantly reduced after the first cycle. Patients receiving venetoclax-azacitidine had a complete remission (CR)/CR with incomplete hematological recovery rate of 67%, day 30 and day 60 mortality of 5% and 8%, respectively, and median overall survival of 13.6 months.
