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

Eight children underwent reduced-intensity stem cell transplantation (RIST) from an HLA-matched sibling. They received a fludarabine-melphalan based preparative regimen. Stem cell source was bone marrow, and GVHD prophylaxis consisted of cyclosporine A alone. Acute GVHD grade II-IV and grade III-IV were observed in four (50%) and three (37.5%), respectively, out of these eight patients. This incidence was significantly higher than that after conventional bone marrow transplantation, without severe tissue damage, in the same setting of stem cell source and GVHD prophylaxis. Although the number of patients is small, our results suggest that incidence of acute GVHD after RIST for children is significant. It should be remembered that RIST for children does not seem to be an easy transplant procedure from the viewpoint of acute GVHD, although RIST is less toxic.
