Role of hematopoietic stem cell transplant in the management of follicular lymphoma.
Review in The oncologist, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Despite decades of published data regarding the application of autologous and allogeneic stem cell transplant in patients with follicular lymphoma, there remain no uniform indications for its use in this disease. Autologous transplant has been shown to lead to longer progression-free survival times in randomized trials when compared with postremission interferon-based chemoimmunotherapy. However, the development of rituximab and its use in frontline, salvage, and maintenance therapy complicates the decision to pursue autologous transplant, a modality developed prior to the advent of anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies. Allogeneic transplant offers the advantages of lymphoma-free grafts and the immunologic graft-versus-lymphoma effect. These factors may confer the possibility of long-term remission, though historically they have been accompanied by high rates of upfront morbidity and mortality, especially in heavily pretreated patients with a poor performance status or chemotherapy-refractory disease. Advances in patient selection, human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matching, conditioning regimens, and supportive care have reduced transplant-related mortality and the incidence of graft-versus-host disease. Recently published data focus on the incorporation of rituximab and radioimmunoconjugates prior to, during, and following autologous transplant. Furthermore, reduced-intensity allogeneic stem cell transplantation has increasingly been used for relapsed follicular lymphoma patients with comorbidities or advanced age. Several recent reports suggest that reduced-intensity regimens may provide a high likelihood of long-term disease-free survival for patients up to 70 years of age with a good performance status, chemotherapy-sensitive disease, and HLA-matched sibling donors. Such patients with relapsed disease should be referred to a transplant center that can enroll them in one of the forthcoming clinical trials that aim to confirm these outcomes.
