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

Venetoclax plus hypomethylating agents (HMAs) is a standard therapy for older or unfit patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML); however, some patients exhibit suboptimal responses, potentially associated with T-cell exhaustion. Our preclinical findings that statins enhance HMA efficacy by boosting anti-tumor T-cell responses prompted us to translate this strategy to the clinic. A multicenter phase II clinical trial (ChiCTR 2500111931) was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adding rosuvastatin to venetoclax and azacitidine (venetoclax-azacitidine) in older/unfit AML patients. After induction therapy with this triple combination, the cohort achieved a complete response (CR) rate of 55.5% and a composite complete remission (CRc) rate of 72.2%. Among patients who achieved CRc, 84.6% attained measurable residual disease (MRD) < 10
