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

We report the results of a pilot study of a BU-fludarabine-alemtuzumab (BFA)-reduced toxicity conditioning (RTC) followed by allogeneic hematopoietic SCT (AlloHSCT) in 12 children and adolescents (<21 years) with malignant and non-malignant diseases. Stem cell sources were: two unrelated cord blood, one unrelated BM, two related and seven unrelated PBSC. Positive CD34 selection was performed in five unrelated PBSC grafts. RCT was carried out with BFA, and GVHD prophylaxis was FK506 and mycophenolate mofetil. The median time for neutrophil and platelet engraftment was 16 and 31 days, respectively. The P of developing ≥ grade II, ≥ grade III aGVHD and cGVHD was 41.6, 25 and 9%, respectively. Only 1 out of 12 developed ≥ grade III toxicity. There was one primary and no secondary graft failure. Mixed donor chimerism on day 100 and 1 year was median 99 and 96%, respectively; ≥ 90% of recipients achieved ≥ 80% donor chimerism. The 3-year overall survival (OS) in all patients was 91.7 ± 8% (100% for malignant vs. 80% for non-malignant diseases, ns). In all, 11 (91%) patients remain alive at median 2.8 (0.3-6.8) years. RTC followed by AlloHSCT, based on BFA conditioning, is feasible and tolerable in children and adolescents, and results in prompt achievement of durable mixed donor chimerism and excellent OS.
