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

Background: Very severe aplastic anemia (VSAA) is a life-threatening bone marrow failure syndrome. For patients ineligible for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), effective treatments that induce rapid responses remain limited. This case report describes a young VSAA patient who achieved an exceptionally rapid trilineage response to first-line therapy with high-dose romiplostim (ROMI), hetrombopag, and standard immunosuppressive therapy (IST). Case presentation: A 16-years-old male with newly diagnosed VSAA (neutrophils 0.13 × 10 Conclusion: The combination of high-dose ROMI, hetrombopag, and IST induced a rapid response in this young VSAA patient who refused HSCT. This dual TPO-RA regimen warrants further investigation as a potential first-line option for HSCT-ineligible VSAA patients.
