Article in Bone marrow transplantation, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03689907 (Assessing the Predictive Potential of Early Chimerism Analysis Following Allogeneic Stem-Cell Transplant), which is not on this map. Cited by 38 papers.

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.

Abstract

The role of chimerism analysis as a prognostic indicator of relapse after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT) is controversial. We monitored chimerism status by short tandem repeat-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in T- and non-T-cell subsets and retrospectively evaluated clinical outcome in 96 patients with acute myeloid leukemia after myeloablative (MA) or reduced-intensity conditioning SCT. Fifty-six percent of 80 patients in the MA group demonstrated complete donor chimerism (CC) at all time points, whereas 6% had decreasing mixed chimerism (MC), 8% stable MC, 25% increasing MC and 3% increasing and decreasing MC. In 16 RIC patients, these percentages were 12, 50, 6, 6 and 19, respectively, together with 6% nonengraftment. Forty-three out of 96 patients experienced relapse. The last chimerism evaluation before relapse revealed increasing MC in only eight patients. In samples taken between 1 and 6 months post SCT, CC/decreasing MC was significantly related with a lower risk of relapse (31 versus 83%, P<0.000) and mortality (38 versus 83%, P<0.000) than with MC/increasing MC. However, the development of relapse was very rapid. Only very frequent monitoring of chimerism status by highly sensitive methods might identify impending relapse and allow early immunological intervention.
