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

Bone Marrow Transplantation (BMT) is currently the most physiologic treatment for some types of leukodystrophies. In enzyme deficiency states, replacement of defective genes with cells carrying "normal" copies of these genes offers a natural form of gene therapy. This review will cover the various disease states which may be treated using bone marrow transplantation as well as the obstacles and advantages offered by this treatment modality. The potential for mixed hematopoietic chimerism, with reference to the advantages and disadvantages of treating various leukodystrophies, is reviewed. Finally, certain approaches which would reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with conventional BMT are discussed. If these obstacles can be overcome, BMT may offer the hope of cure to a number, but certainly not all, leukodystrophies.
