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

Using non-total body irradiation (TBI) containing preparative regimens, 13 patients with severe aplastic anemia (SAA) were transplanted from an alternative donor in a single institute. In total, 12 donors were unrelated volunteers and one was an HLA one-locus mismatched sibling. Median time from diagnosis of SAA to bone marrow transplantation (BMT) was 10.1 months (range, 1.6-180.1). Nine patients had received immunosuppressive treatment with ATG before BMT, while four had not. Preparative regimens consisted of cyclophosphamide plus ATG in nine patients, cyclophosphamide plus fludarabine in two patients, and cyclophosphamide plus fludarabine plus ATG in two patients. All patients received non-T-cell depleted bone marrow from the donor. Cyclosporine plus methotrexate were given for GVHD prophylaxis. All patients engrafted on a median of day 21 (range, 15-27). Grade III-IV acute GVHD developed in three (23%) of 13 patients and extensive chronic GVHD in four (31%) of 12 evaluable patients. With a median follow-up duration of 1138 days (range, 118-1553), 10 patients are alive with durable engraftment showing 74.6% (95% confidence interval, 49.5-99.7%) of survival rate. Cause of the deaths was CNS bleeding in one and chronic GVHD in two. In conclusion, non-TBI containing preparative regimen could ensure durable engraftment in alternative donor BMT for SAA and showed promising results.
