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

High treatment-related mortality (TRM) and high graft failure rate are serious concerns in HLA-mismatched umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation with myeloablative conditioning. We conducted a prospective trial of dual UCB transplantation using modified myeloablation consisting of total-body irradiation (TBI; 1350 cGy) and fludarabine (Flu) (160 mg/m(2)). Twenty-seven patients (median age, 33 years; range: 20-58 years) with hematologic malignancies were enrolled. The median combined cryopreserved total nucleated cell (TNC) dose was 4.3 × 10(7)/kg (range: 3.2-7.7 × 10(7)/kg). The cumulative incidences of neutrophil (≥500/μL) and platelet (≥50,000/μL) engraftment were 80% (95% confidence interval [CI], 58%-91%) and 68% (95% CI, 46%-83%), respectively. Among engrafted patients, a single cord blood unit was predominant by 100 days posttransplantation. A higher cryopreserved and infused TNC dose and infused CD3(+) cell dose were significant factors associated with the predominant UCB unit (P = .032, .020, and .042, respectively). TRM and relapse rates at 2 years were 28% (95% CI, 12%-47%) and 20% (95% CI, 7%-37%), respectively. Cumulative incidences of grades II-IV and grades III-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) were 37% (95% CI, 20%-55%) and 11% (95% CI, 3%-26%), respectively, and that of chronic GVHD was 31% (95% CI, 15%-49%). With a median follow-up of 23 months, overall survival and disease-free survival rates at 2 years were 58% (95% CI, 34%-75%) and 52% (95% CI, 29%-70%), respectively. This study supports the use of TBI 1350 cGy/Flu as an alternative to conventional myeloablative conditioning for dual UCB transplantation.
