The Role of BCL-2 Expression in Patients with Myelodysplastic Neoplasms.
Article in Current issues in molecular biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) represent a heterogeneous group of neoplastic bone marrow disorders. A crucial component in regulating bone marrow cell apoptosis is the B-cell CLL/lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) protein. This retrospective study aimed to assess BCL-2 expression by immunohistochemistry in trephine biopsy specimens from 76 patients diagnosed with MDS. The obtained retrospective results were correlated with clinical parameters, including age, sex, MDS subtype, IPSS, IPSS-R, bone marrow blast percentage, Ogata score, response to treatment, blood morphology parameters, and overall survival (OS). The median follow-up duration was 16 months. During the observation period, 58 patients died (median OS of this group: 14.6 months), and 25 patients experienced progression to acute myeloid leukemia. The median BCL-2 expression assessed using the Histoscore (H-score) was 10. Patients with BCL-2 expression below 10 had better survival outcomes than those with expression ≥ 10. Furthermore, patients without detectable BCL-2 expression had significantly better survival compared to those with detectable BCL-2 expression (
