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

PET/CT plays an important role in staging of multiple myeloma (MM) and detecting extramedullary disease (EMD); however, its role in patients treated with commercially available CAR T cell therapies is unclear. We evaluated 61 patients treated with CAR T cell products. In 53 patients, PET/CT was available before CAR T infusion, and 43 had follow-up PET/CT on day 30. Findings from PET/CT were correlated to (CAR) T single-cell dynamics, fitness and T cell receptor diversity after infusion, and serological markers of tumor burden and inflammation. Patients with bone-independent EMD had inferior median progression-free survival (PFS: 3 vs. 15 months,
