Cost and effectiveness of reduced-intensity and conventional allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for acute myelogenous leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome.

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.
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
goals of workAllogeneic stem cell transplantation with a reduced-intensity regimen (RIST) has been evaluated mostly in terms of its clinical benefit, and the pharmacoeconomic aspects of this procedure remain unclear. We compared the cost and effectiveness of RIST with those of stem cell transplantation using a conventional myeloablative regimen (CST). PATIENTS AND
methodsFifty consecutive patients who underwent transplantation for myeloid malignancy were included. Life years and medical costs during the entire treatment course for up to 2 years after transplantation were evaluated, and cost-effectiveness was assessed from the payer's perspective. MAIN
resultsOf these 50 cases, 35 were treated with CST and 15 were treated with RIST. The mean survival time was 1.5 years in CST and 1.2 years in RIST, while the mean total cost per patient within the first 2 years was $29,630 for CST and $29,466 for RIST, with no significant difference. The duration of total hospitalization was shorter in RIST than in CST; then, the cost for hospitalization represented a lower proportion of the total cost in RIST (49% of total cost) than in CST (63%). In contrast, the cost related to the conditioning regimen was significantly higher in RIST than in CST.
conclusionsThis result suggests that the increased cost of the conditioning regimen offsets the reduced cost of hospitalization in RIST. Although some differences were observed in the details of the cost, the total cost and mean survival were comparable between CST and RIST, and this result was confirmed by a probabilistic sensitivity analysis.
