Long-Term Follow-Up of Elderly Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia Treated with Decitabine: A Real-World Study of the Apulian Hematological Network.
Article in Cancers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Decitabine, a DNA hypomethylating agent, was approved for use in adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) not eligible for standard chemotherapy and is now widely accepted as standard treatment. Although a number of clinical trials demonstrated its benefits in elderly AML patients, older adults and patients with frequent comorbidities are typically under-represented in such settings. Thus, the aim of the present study is to evaluate, in a real-world setting, the effectiveness and toxicity of decitabine administered as a single agent in unselected previously untreated elderly AML patients not eligible for intensive chemotherapy. In nine hematological departments of the Apulian Hematological Network (REP), we enrolled 199 patients (median age: 75.4 years; range: 61-91) with de novo (
