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

Inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO) is effective for relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R B-ALL) but is associated with hepatotoxicity, particularly sinusoidal obstruction syndrome/veno-occlusive disease (SOS/VOD), which leads to portal hypertension (PH). We report a case of a 50-year-old woman who, after receiving InO, developed SOS/VOD and subsequent chronic PH, manifesting as recurrent variceal bleeding approximately 18 months post-treatment. A literature review highlights diagnostic advances using non-invasive tools like transient elastography, the central role of calicheamicin-induced endothelial injury and complement activation in pathogenesis, and risk mitigation through ursodiol prophylaxis and avoidance of dual-alkylator conditioning regimens. The case further illustrates that PH can present with atypical hemodynamics, such as preserved portal flow and absence of cirrhosis, and may emerge as a chronic sequela long after acute SOS/VOD resolution. Quantitative risk assessment using a validated model (CIBMTR) revealed a very low pre-treatment SOS/VOD risk (2.64%), highlighting that InO-induced injury can override a favorable baseline risk profile. This underscores the importance of long-term monitoring for PH, even after resolution of acute SOS/VOD and achievement of leukemia remission, to optimize outcomes in InO-treated patients.
