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

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a severe disorder and despite therapeutic efforts to decrease its distressing clinical manifestations, treatment is still not optimal. Here we report the results of studies, in which the purine analogue, fludarabine phosphate, was used in an attempt to modify and decrease GVHD after stem cell transplantation, across major histocompatibility barriers for murine leukemia. B-cell leukemia (BCL-1) bearing (BALB/c x C57BL/6) F1 mice received two cycles of fludarabine (0.8 mg/kg) for 5 days every 2 weeks, followed by 400 mg/kg cyclophosphamide i.p. Animals were then transplanted with C57BL/6 precursor cells and the development of leukemia and extent of GVHD was monitored both clinically and histopathologically. In the fludarabine-treated group, only nine of 28 (32%) mice developed leukemia, compared to 25 of 33 (76%) of control animals (P=0.0006 ). Mice treated with fludarabine-containing regimens prior to transplantation also had much less GVHD both clinically and at autopsy, while graft-versus-leukemia appeared to be augmented in the same animals.
