Review in Bone marrow transplantation, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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

Infectious complications constitute a major cause of morbidity and mortality in pediatric and adult patients undergoing hematopoietic SCT (HSCT). Current guidelines and recommendations for prevention of infections in children after HSCT are presented in this mini review. The paper is based on evidence-based recommendations rated by the strength of the recommendation and the quality of the supporting evidence. Prophylaxis strategy based on risk stratification includes: (1) general infection control in hospital environment, (2) pharmacological approach related to antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral agents and (3) vaccination. Although most studies were carried out on adults only, some included both pediatric and adult patients. No differences in prophylaxis strategy and efficacy among age groups are reported. With changing practices, transplant teams are encouraged to review local patterns of prophylaxis strategy.
