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

A 13-year-old feline leukemia virus-negative cat was diagnosed with acute lymphoid B-cell aleukemic leukemia. The diagnosis was based on the combination of pancytopenia, large and atypical round cells present on liver and splenic cytology, bone marrow cytology and histopathology showing a majority nucleated population of atypical blast cells, immunohistochemistry, and a lack of malignant lymphoblasts observed in the peripheral blood. The cat was initially treated with L-asparaginase, vincristine, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and prednisolone, which led to a resolution of the cytopenias. After relapse on Day 242, lomustine was first administered, followed by a modified protocol of vincristine, mitoxantrone, cyclophosphamide, and prednisolone, due to progressive disease. A survival time exceeding 1 y following diagnosis was obtained. This case highlights both a rare, aleukemic form of acute lymphoid leukemia in a feline leukemia virus-negative cat and an atypically prolonged survival time. Key clinical message: Prolonged survival of cats with acute lymphoid aleukemic leukemia is possible with chemotherapy treatment.
