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

The use of Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKi) is rapidly increasing for patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Side effects reported so far are usually manageable. However, here we present two cases of life-threatening aplastic anemia (AA) upon treatment with the BTKi acalabrutinib for MCL. The first patient died of neutropenic infection secondary to AA. The second patient was successfully treated with immunosuppressive treatment but the MCL relapsed shortly thereafter. AA is a potentially fatal complication that should be considered when patients present with pancytopenia during treatment with BTKi.
