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

We prospectively compared two strategies of allogeneic PBSCT from HLA-identical siblings in adults with poor-risk AML or myelodysplastic syndrome with >5% marrow blasts in an early disease status (AML or refractory anemia with excess blasts (RAEB type 2) in first remission after chemotherapy or untreated RAEB type 1). Based only on age, all consecutive patients were offered one of two specific transplant protocols. Patients < or =50 years old received conventional high-dose conditioning with cyclophosphamide-TBI and use of CD34+-selected PBSCT (CTCD34+ group), while patients aged >50 years received a reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) with fludarabine and oral busulphan (FB-RIC). Seventy-five patients entered the study (35 in the CTCD34+ and 39 in the FB-RIC group). The median follow-up was >4 years in both groups. The 4-year non-relapse mortality (NRM) was 19 and 20%, respectively (P=0.8). Relapse and survival were also equivalent in both groups. These results suggest that in this setting, the expected high NRM in elderly patients can be reduced with an RIC regimen.
