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

purpose of reviewWe herein assess the distinct biological and clinical features of AML in older patients. We emphasize the importance of pre-treatment assessment to individualize care but note the changing treatment paradigm from intensive towards non-intensive therapy. RECENT FINDING: Geriatric assessments and genetic data provide predictive information that guides treatment. During the past decade the FDA approved at least nine new targeted therapies, mostly small molecule inhibitors, in AML patients of all ages. These agents have created novel therapeutic options for this poorly chemo tolerant population whose AML tends to be intrinsically resistant to such therapy. Older AML patients may now be treated with less toxic therapy that provides similar, if not superior, efficacy compared with conventional chemotherapy. Although TP53 mutant AML remains a particular unmet need, additional novel agents on the horizon provide hope for improving outcomes for older adults with AML.
