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

In the literature, there is an abundance of promising data on the outcome of allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) in patients with Fanconi anemia (FA); however, the data on the outcome of FA patients who present with myelodysplasia and/or abnormal clone are sketchy as the entity itself is a rare one, although, it is believed that the presence of any of these factors confers a worse prognosis on the outcome of the transplant. This is an update of our experience in 11 such patients who underwent SCT at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center; 10 from the matched and related donors and 1 from a partially matched unrelated cord blood unit; the conditioning was with the same regimen consisting of cyclophosphamide (total of 20 mg/kg), anti-thymocyte globulin (total dose 160 mg/kg of the equine product or 52 mg/kg of the rabbit product) and total-body irradiation at 450 cGy. Ten patients remain currently alive, well and with no evidence of disease, with a median follow-up of almost 4 years.
