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

Hurler syndrome (MPS 1H) is the severe form of mucopolysaccharidosis type 1 (MPS 1). Haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is the treatment of choice, but carries a high incidence of graft failure and morbidity. The use of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) might improve the clinical signs and symptoms before HCT, resulting in less transplantation-related complications. Moreover, clearance of glycosaminoglycans (GAG's) from the bone marrow might improve engraftment. Twenty-two patients with MPS 1H received one or more HCT procedures in combination with ERT. One patient with severe cardiomyopathy improved significantly after ERT. All children were in a relatively good clinical condition before HCT. Of patients 59, 82 and 86% were alive and engrafted after one, two and three HCT procedures, respectively. Two patients died after repetitive HCT. No serious ERT-infusion-related toxicity occurred. ERT with HCT was well tolerated. Neither a positive nor a negative effect on the number of patients who are alive and engrafted after receiving ERT before HCT as compared to a historic cohort was noted. However, patients in a poor clinical condition before HCT might benefit from ERT.
