Complex karyotypes in hematologic disorders: a 12-year single-center study from Lebanon.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Conventional cytogenetic analysis is an important tool for the diagnosis of many hematologic disorders (HD). A karyotype is designed as « complex » when several alterations are detected. However, there is no clear consensus on the exact definition of a complex karyotype (CK), and there is a lack of studies that exclusively analyze CK in the literature. Complex karyotypes were analyzed over a period of 12 years at the Jacques Loiselet Center for Medical Genetics and Genomics (CGGM) at Saint Joseph University in Beirut (USJ) in Lebanon. 255 CK were analyzed with their associated chromosomal abnormalities (CA) detected. Out of 255 patients, 59.22% were males with a mean age of 59 years. The most common anomaly associated with CK was hyperdiploidy with a prevalence of 22.41%, which is different from a previously published study. To our knowledge, this represents the largest series of CK, particularly within the Middle East region. This study underscores the critical role of conventional cytogenetics in detecting CK, ultimately contributing to improved management of HD. Further investigations focusing on CK are needed.
