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

Oestrogen receptors mediate the cellular response to oestrogens and related compounds and promote a wide range of effects on haemopoiesis. Polymorphisms of the oestrogen receptor genes have previously been associated with variation in bone mineral density, likelihood of fractures, risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, endometrial cancer and response to hormone replacement therapy. We examined the polymorphisms in both ERalpha and ERbeta genes in 108 patients receiving a bone marrow transplant from an HLA-matched sibling donor, and compared ER genotype with outcomes of occurrence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and survival using logistic regression analysis. Polymorphism of ERalpha (presence of the PX haplotype (PvuII-XbaI RFLP) of intron 1), but not ERbeta, in the patient genotype associates with occurrence of acute GVHD and with lower overall survival, following correction for known clinical and genotypic risk features. Analysis of ER genotype prior to transplant might therefore inform on a patient's likelihood of developing post-transplant complications. Variation in transplant performance because of ER genotype suggests an underlying role for oestrogens in the pathophysiology of transplant-related complications, and suggests that oestrogen-related therapy may offer a new modality of post-transplant support.
