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

In all, 41 multiple myeloma (MM) patients received an antithymocyte globulin (ATG), fludarabine, and busulfan-based reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) for allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) from HLA-identical siblings. In total, 29 patients (70%) were in partial remission, one patient in complete remission, and 11 (27%) with progressive disease at the time of allo-SCT. Median time between diagnosis and allo-SCT was 24 months. The cumulative incidences of grade II-IV and grade III-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) were 36% (95% CI, 21-51%) and 7% (95% CI, 2-20%), respectively. Overall, 10 patients developed limited chronic GVHD, whereas seven developed an extensive form (cumulative incidence, 41% (95% CI, 26-56%) at 2 years). With a median follow-up of 389 days, the overall cumulative incidence of transplant-related mortality (TRM) was 17% (95% CI, 6-28%). In all, 11 patients (27%) are in continuous complete remission, and the Kaplan-Meier estimates of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) at 2 years were 62% (95% CI, 47-76%) and 41% (95% CI, 23-62%), respectively. PFS and OS were significantly higher in patients with chronic GVHD as compared to patients without chronic GVHD (P=0.006 for PFS and P=0.01 for OS). Collectively, these data demonstrate that RIC allo-SCT can mediate a potentially curative graft-versus-myeloma effect with an acceptable incidence of toxicity and TRM.
