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

Six hundred and fifteen centers from 45 countries reported a total 30,293 HSCT to this 2008 EBMT survey with 26,810 first transplants (40% allogeneic, 60% autologous). This corresponds to an increase of 7% for the allogeneic and 3% for the autologous HSCT. Main indications were leukemias (32%; 89% allogeneic); lymphomas (56%; 89% autologous); solid tumors (6%; 96% autologous); and non-malignant disorders (6%; 88% allogeneic). There were more unrelated than HLA-identical sibling donors (49 vs 46%). The proportion of peripheral blood transplants remained stable with 99% for autologous and 70% for allogeneic HSCT. One fifth of the teams with >80 HSCT performed more than half of all HSCT. This trend towards teams with higher numbers of HSCT was stronger for allogeneic (Gini coefficient 57%) than for autologous HSCT (Gini coefficient 38%). Transplant rates (number of transplants per 10 million inhabitants) increased in a close to linear way with increasing team density (number of transplant teams per 10 million inhabitants) and without saturation (R(2)=0.54); this connection was even stronger for allogeneic HSCT (R(2)=0.67). These data illustrate status and trends for HSCT in Europe. They provide a rational basis for planning and patient counseling.
