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

Juvenile myelomonocytic leukaemia (JMML) is a rare haematological malignancy caused by mutations in the Ras signalling pathway. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and DNA methylation profiling used for diagnostic and risk stratification purposes are now standard of care in Europe and the United States for patients with JMML. To better understand how implementing these types of technologies would impact the treatment of JMML patients in different settings, molecular profiling was performed on 81 patients treated for JMML in Egypt from 2009 to 2022. NGS increased the number of patients with a molecular diagnosis compared to conventional Sanger sequencing. NGS and DNA methylation analysis also identified patients with a higher risk for relapse based on the presence of multiple mutations or intermediate/high methylation respectively. Mutational burden, cytogenetics and methylation subgrouping were combined to develop a risk stratification model that may help to prioritize patients for haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In summary, advanced molecular testing is key to enabling an accurate diagnosis and predicting outcome in JMML.
