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

Older age is a limitation for HLA-identical sibling hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) as first-line therapy for severe acquired idiopathic aplastic anemia (SAA). Fludarabine (Flu)-based conditioning might improve outcome in older patients. We analyzed retrospectively 30 patients older than 30 years receiving such reduced-intensity conditioning HSCT according to recommendations of the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) and compared their outcome to a control group receiving the standard regimen (cyclophosphamide+/-antithymocyte globulin) over the same study period (1998-2007). Patients conditioned with Flu had a higher probability of overall survival than the control group (p=0.04) when adjusting for recipient's age. This might be related to a trend towards a reduced incidence of graft failure in patients receiving Flu (0% vs. 11%, p=0.09), while no difference was observed regarding graft-versus-host disease incidence. Flu-based conditioning regimen may reduce the negative impact of age in older patients with SAA receiving an HLA-identical sibling HSCT.
