Review in Leukemia, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Allogeneic stem cell transplantation in multiple myeloma after standard myeloablative conditioning induces a high rate of complete remissions, but long-term freedom from disease is achieved in 30-40% of the cases only. The therapeutic effect of allogeneic stem cell transplantation is due to cytotoxicity of high-dose chemotherapy and immune-mediated graft-versus-myeloma effect by donor T cells. Retrospective studies clearly suggest that both (a) reducing the intensity of high-dose chemotherapy by using reduced-intensity or non-myeloablative conditioning regimen or (b) reducing the immunotherapy of donor T cells by using T-cell depletion result in lower treatment-related morbidity and mortality, but also in higher rate of relapse. Therefore, this review will focus on potential strategies of how treatment-related morbidity and mortality might be kept low without an increased risk of relapse and how remission status after transplantation can be enhanced by using the newly established donor immunosystems after allografting as a platform for post-transplant treatment strategies with new drugs (thalidomide, lenalidomide, bortezomib) or immunotherapy (donor lymphocyte infusion, vaccination, tumor-specific T cells) in order to achieve remission on a molecular level, which seems to be a 'conditio sine qua non' to cure myeloma patients.
