Waldenström macroglobulinemia: a review of pathogenesis, current treatment, and future prospects.
Review in Annals of hematology, 2024. 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
Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) is a chronic B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by lymphoplasmacytic cell overgrowth in the bone marrow and increased secretion of IgM immunoglobulins into the serum. Patients with WM have a variety of clinical outcomes, including long-term survival but inevitable recurrence. Recent advances in disease knowledge, including molecular and genetic principles with the discovery of MYD88 and CXCR4 mutations, have rapidly increased patient-tolerable treatment options. WM patients may benefit from chemotherapy regimens that include rituximab-based regimens, alkylating drugs, proteasome inhibitors, monoclonal antibodies, and drugs targeting Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors. In light of these advancements, patients can now receive treatment customized to their specific clinical characteristics, focusing on enhancing the depth and durability of their response while limiting the adverse effects. Despite the rapidly developing therapeutic armament against WM, a lack of high-quality evidence from extensive phase 3 trials remains a significant challenge in the research. We believe clinical outcomes will keep improving when new medicines are introduced while preserving efficacy and minimizing toxicity.
