Is chemotherapy scoring useful to predict progenitor cell mobilisation in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma?
Article in Bone marrow transplantation, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
About 10-30% of patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) intended to receive high-dose therapy are difficult to mobilise. Damage to the stem cell pool caused by previous chemotherapy may be an important factor in predicting progenitor cell mobilisation. We have analysed associations between chemotherapy score and efficiency of progenitor cell mobilisation in 120 consecutive NHL patients mobilised with intermediate-dose cyclophosphamide (4 g/m(2)) plus G-CSF. The original chemotherapy scoring system proposed by Drake et al was applicable in only 27% of our patients and was not predictive for mobilisation outcome. Therefore we made an improved scoring system for previous chemotherapy by adding new drugs. Altogether, 111 patients (93%) could be scored. Our chemotherapy score showed an inverse correlation with the peak blood CD34(+) count measured after the mobilisation (r=-0.214, P=0.024) and with the number of CD34(+) cells collected (r=-0.234, P=0.02). However, in the receiver operating characteristics curve, no threshold value could be detected for chemotherapy score predicting mobilisation failure. Thus, both the original scoring system as well as our more widely applicable scoring system seem to be of limited value in predicting progenitor cell mobilisation in patients with NHL.
