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

Central nervous system (CNS) involvement in adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is uncommon and more frequently observed at relapse than at initial presentation. Typically, CNS relapse coincides with systemic disease, evidenced by detectable blasts in the bone marrow (BM) and/or peripheral blood. We describe a rare case of an 82-year-old patient with a history of AML, diagnosed three and a half years earlier, who developed an isolated CNS relapse while receiving palliative chemotherapy-without concurrent BM involvement or molecular evidence of systemic progression. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis revealed blast cells harboring an FLT3 internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD). Targeted therapy with an FLT3 tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) achieved complete remission, with clearance of FLT3-ITD from the CSF.
