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

Mannan-binding lectin (MBL) deficiency is determined by MBL gene polymorphisms and is associated with an increased infection risk. To clarify the role of MBL in Allo-SCT, 131 recipients-donors were analysed. MBL genotypes were determined by PCR and heteroduplex analyses, MBL serum levels by ELISA, and MBL oligomers by western blotting. MBL levels <400 ng/ml were associated with increased susceptibility to fungal pneumonia (7/12 vs 35/111; P=0.04, adjusted P=0.002), HSV/VZV (7/12 vs 26/111; P=0.03), CMV reactivation and acute GVHD. Donor genotypes had no influence. Pre-SCT MBL levels corresponded to recipients' genotypes (P<0.001), changed significantly post-SCT, but were not influenced by donors' genotypes. MBL oligomer profiles were similar pre-/post-SCT. Cultured CD34+ cells were found not to synthesise MBL. In conclusion, low MBL levels pre-transplant predisposed patients to sepsis, fungal and viral infection. Donors' MBL genotypes did not influence infection rates. Prospective studies should clarify the importance of MBL as a prelude for MBL replacement after SCT.
