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

Acute GVHD has remained a significant cause of nonrelapse mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) with nonmyeloablative conditioning. The role of TNF-alpha in the biology of acute GVHD after nonmyeloablative conditioning has not been studied thus far. Here, we measured TNF receptor 1 (TNFR1) as a surrogate marker for TNF-alpha in 106 patients before the start of the conditioning regimen (baseline) and 7 days after allogeneic HCT with nonmyeloablative conditioning. The nonmyeloablative regimen consisted of 2 Gy TBI alone (n=15), 2 Gy TBI plus fludarabine 90 mg/m2 (n=73), or 4 Gy TBI plus fludarabine 90 mg/m2 (n=18). TNFR1 levels increased significantly from baseline to day 7 after nonmyeloablative HCT (P<0.0001). Patients conditioned with 4 Gy TBI had higher TNFR1 day 7/baseline ratio than those conditioned with 2 Gy TBI (median 1.65 versus 1.25; P=0.01). In a multivariate Cox model, high TNFR1 day7/baseline ratio was associated with grades II-IV (HR=2.2, P=0.01) and grades III-IV (HR=2.9, P=0.007) acute GVHD, but had no impact on overall survival (P=0.8). In summary, our data suggest that nonmyeloablative conditioning induces the generation of TNF-alpha, and that the magnitude of TNF-alpha generation depends on the conditioning intensity (2 Gy versus 4 Gy TBI). Further, assessment of TNFR1 levels before and on day 7 after nonmyeloablative HCT provided useful information on subsequent risk of experiencing acute GVHD.
