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

This retrospective single-center study compared the incidence, spectrum and effect of infections in 1045 consecutive allogeneic (allo) and autologous (auto) hematopoietic SCT (HSCT) performed between 1995 and 2006 in the inpatient (IP) or outpatient (OP) setting. We analyzed 374 allo-HSCT (196 IP and 178 OP) and 671 auto-HSCT (163 IP and 508 OP). The incidence of infection was lower both in auto-OP (25% OP vs 33% IP, P=0.042) and allo-OP cohorts (42.7% OP vs 55.6% IP, P=0.012). The mean number of infections per transplant was lower in both auto-OP (0.39 OP vs 0.57 IP, P=0.05) and in allo-OP cohorts (0.78 OP vs 1.09 IP, P=0.018). The 100-day non-relapse mortality (NRM) for OP auto-HSCT was 4.72% and for IP 3.95% (P=0.68). The 100-day NRM for OP allo-HSCT was lower at 14.1% than it was for IP at 22.6% (P=0.041). Time to onset of first infection and spectrum of infections was similar in all groups. We conclude that performing allo- and auto-HSCT in the OP setting results in short-term outcomes, including infections complications that are comparable to the standard IP setting.
