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

Late relapse of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is associated with high mortality rates. While APL typically shows a low incidence of relapse after achieving complete remission (CR) for more than 7 years, we report a rare case of APL relapse occurring 18 years after CR was achieved. The patient was successfully treated with a combination of arsenic trioxide (ATO) and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), leading to favorable outcomes. Additionally, we review our treatment experience and provide a comprehensive analysis of the existing literature, summarizing the characteristics of reported APL cases that relapsed after maintaining CR for over 7 years.
