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

The major factors that limit the success of organ transplantation are the host immune response to the foreign graft and the adverse effects of the chronic immunosuppressive therapy required to suppress this immune response. Deliberately establishing tolerance towards the donor tissue by reprogramming the immune system of the recipient thus holds great promise in improving organ transplant survival and eliminating the untoward effects of chronic drug therapy. The transplantation of donor bone marrow into recipients who are appropriately conditioned to allow development of either full or mixed chimerism has long been recognized to effectively induce donor-specific tolerance. Despite the demonstrated effectiveness of this technique, use of the mixed chimerism strategy in regular clinical practice has been hampered by the toxic side effects inherent to conventional bone marrow transplantation protocols. This Review addresses recent advances in preclinical and clinical studies inducing transplantation tolerance through mixed chimerism and discusses both the potential and the challenges of this approach.
