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

Of all the treatment modalities employed to control multiple myeloma, only allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is potentially curative, due in large part to a graft-versus-myeloma (GVM) effect. Whereas patients who receive either allogeneic or autologous stem cell transplants for multiple myeloma have similar 3-5-year survival, only allograft recipients appear to enjoy long-term disease-free survival. High transplant-related mortality (TRM) associated with allogeneic stem cell transplantation is currently the major limitation to wider use of this potentially curative modality. This high mortality has been the major impetus for exploration of reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens designed to allow engraftment of allogeneic stem cells. With follow-up now extending to 7 years, it is clear that when compared to myeloablative transplants, RIC allografts are associated with lower TRM; however, reduced mortality comes at a cost of higher rates of disease progression and relapse. Strategies designed to improve the therapeutic index of allografts include the use of more intensive, yet still non-myeloablative conditioning regimens, tandem autologous plus RIC allografts, peripheral blood cells rather than bone marrow, graft engineering to improve the GVM activity while reducing graft-versus-host disease, post-transplant maintenance and targeted conditioning therapies such as bone-seeking radioisotopes.
