Real-World Management of HMA-Related Myelosuppression During MDS Treatment in the Canadian Landscape.
Review in Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Hypomethylating agents (HMAs) are the cornerstone in the treatment of higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs), particularly for patients who are not candidates for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (allo-HCT). Despite demonstrated efficacy in improving hematologic outcomes, the clinical management of HMA-associated myelosuppression remains a challenge. This review discusses the use of azacitidine and oral decitabine-cedazuridine (DEC-C) for MDS management in the Canadian context, with a focus on optimizing therapy to mitigate myelosuppression and prevent early HMA discontinuation due to toxicity. Close monitoring of complete blood counts is critical to early detection of myelosuppression and management of treatment-related cytopenias. In the real-world setting, specific HMA dose adjustments are used based on patient risk factors for myelosuppression or treatment-related complications. Supportive care strategies, including the use of growth factors and antimicrobials, can complement monitoring and dose modifications for HMA-related myelosuppression management, although their use is variable. This review summarizes current evidence and real-world management approaches for HMA-induced myelosuppression, with the aim of improving outcomes for patients undergoing treatment for MDS.
