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

As chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has a variable disease course, novel prognostic markers and risk assessment models are being developed in order to identify high-risk patients who may need early treatment. The two tumor necrosis factor family proteins BAFF and APRIL and their receptors BAFF-R, TACI and BCMA are considered to play a critical role in the survival of normal B cells. In order to highlight the pathophysiological role of this complicated biological network, we aimed to analyze the potential prognostic effects of BAFF, APRIL, TACI and BCMA in CLL patients. We investigated the prognostic impact of serum BCMA, TACI, BAFF and APRIL levels in 129 newly diagnosed CLL patients [median age: 64 (39-88) years; male/female: 85/44]. Serum BAFF, TACI and BCMA levels were significantly lower in the patient group compared to the control group (
