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

Various AML treatment regimens might trigger different immunological mechanisms against leukemic cells. The role of different immune cell subsets in the mediation of antileukemic processes is not clear. In this study, we longitudinally assessed (leukemia specific) immune subtype compositions in 17 AML patients before stem cell transplantation (SCT) at different timepoints in the course and in different stages of the disease using flow cytometry. Further we correlated immune cell compositions with patients' response to induction therapy and the median survival (3.8 months in our cohort) of the patients. Finally, we compared immune cell profiles from patients before and after SCT. (1) Patients in CR (compared to dgn and PD) were characterized by higher frequencies of leukemia-derived DC (DCleu), (leukemia-specific-IFNg or TNFα producing or CD107a degranulating) anti-tumor relevant T cells (Tgd, Tβ7), central/effector memory cells (Tcm, Tem), alongside with lower frequencies of (leukemia-specific) regulatory T cells. (2) Patients with higher frequencies of (leukemia-specific) antitumor relevant T cells, (leukemia-specific) memory T cells and NK cells demonstrated a prolonged median survival time and/or responded better to induction (RTI) treatment (3) Comparing patients before and after SCT, only minimal differences were observed. However, patients in CR
