Bloodless (transfusion-free) hematopoietic stem cell transplants: the Mexican experience.
Article in Bone marrow transplantation, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We have analyzed the transfusion requirements of a group of 132 peripheral blood stem cell transplants from a single institution (73 allografts and 59 autografts) over a 10-year period. The allografts were conducted using the 'Mexican' nonmyeloablative conditioning regimen, while the autografts were given single-day high-dose melphalan. For the allografts, the median number of transfused packed red blood (PRBC) cell units was 1 (range 0-22), while the median number of platelet transfusion (PLT) sessions was 1 (range 0-9); 45% of allografted individuals did not require PRBC transfusions and 35% did not require PLT. For autografts, the median number of PRBC units was 2 (range 0-21), while the median number of PLT was 2 (range 0-21); 33% of autografted individuals did not require PRBC and 25% did not require PLT. We conclude that, by using certain preparative regimens, both allo and auto hematopoietic stem cell grafts can be conducted without the transfusion of blood products.
