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

HCT is currently the treatment of choice for children with severe primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs). Frequently, these patients lack an HLA-identical sibling donor, and umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation may be an option; however, experience in this field remains scant. Fifteen children with PID (SCID 11, X-linked lymphoproliferative syndrome 2, Omenn's syndrome 1, Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome 1) received a UCB transplant. The donor was unrelated in 14 cases and related in 1. Median age at transplant was 11.6 months (range, 2.9-68.0) and median weight 7 kg (range, 4-21). Thirteen patients were conditioned with busulphan and cyclophosphamide and 2 with fludarabine and melphalan. Nine patients received antithymocyte globulin. Median NC x 10(7)/kg infused was 7.9 (range, 2.9-25.0) and median CD34 x 10(5)/kg 2.9 (range, 1.0-7.9). All patients engrafted. Median days to >0.5 x 10(9)/l neutrophils was 31. Eight patients developed acute graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) grades II-IV and one chronic GvHD. Viral and fungal infections were frequent. Four patients died: three from GvHD grade IV complicated by infection and one from progressive interstitial lung disease. Five-year survival was 0.73+/-0.12. All surviving patients presented complete immunologic reconstitution. No patient is intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) replacement therapy-dependent. UCB transplantation is a valid option for children with PID who lack an HLA-identical sibling donor.
