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

The slower engraftment kinetics and impaired immune reconstitution of cord blood stem cell transplant recipients increase the risk of infectious complications. We retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent cord blood stem cell transplantation at Roswell Park Cancer Institute for hematological malignancies and who survived beyond day 100 for late infectious events. Among 15 patients who were included in the study, there were 18 episodes of bacteremia, 5 cases of bacterial pneumonia, 9 viral, 4 fungal, and 1 nontuberculous mycobacterial infection. Overall mortality was 60%, with infections contributing in 44% of cases. In conclusion, survival beyond day 100 following cord bloodstem cell transplantation is associated with a considerable risk of infections in our single center experience.
