Article in Bone marrow transplantation, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01779882 (Cyclophosphamide-Busulfan Versus Busulfan-Cyclophosphamide as Conditioning Regimen Before Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Leukemia), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

BU-CY is the established non-TBI-based myeloablative conditioning regimen for allogeneic hematopoietic SCT. However, liver toxicity and hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD) are frequent life-threatening complications. Pharmacological considerations suggest that BU can trigger toxicity of subsequent CY. Recent animal data confirmed this hypothesis. Less liver toxicity and better outcomes were observed when mice were treated with the reversed order of CY and BU. We analyzed in this study liver toxicity and outcome in patients receiving BU-CY (16 patients) or CY-BU (59 patients). Liver function differed significantly with higher levels of liver function tests between day +10 and +30, and a higher cumulative incidence of VOD in the BU-CY cohort (2/16 (12.5%) vs 0/59 (0%), P=0.006). TRM was significantly higher in patients receiving BU-CY (cumulative incidence BU-CY 45%, CY-BU 17%, P=0.02), without yet translating into a significant survival difference (incidence for survival: BU-CY 38%, CY-BU 63%; hazard ratio 1.19 for BU-CY, 95% confidence interval 0.29-4.82, P=0.80). Rates of engraftment and relapse were not different. These data support the concepts derived from animal models in favor of CY-BU compared with traditional BU-CY and form the basis for prospective controlled comparisons.
