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

This retrospective analysis evaluated 51 children (0.7-17 years; median eight) with high-risk or advanced hematological malignancies, including 18 (35%) patients undergoing second/third hematopoietic SCT (allo-HSCT), not eligible for standard myeloablative regimens and transplanted from matched sibling (MSD) (n=24) or matched unrelated (MUD) (n=27) donors. Preparative regimens were based on treosulfan (TREO) i.v., a structural analog of BU, given at total dose of 30 g/m(2) (n=21) or 36-42 g/m(2) (n=30) in combination with, fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, melphalan and/or VP-16 according to diagnosis, and risk factors. Deaths due to early regimen-related toxicity (RRT) did not occur. Nonrelapse mortality was 8% at 1 year and 16% after 4 years. Myeloid engraftment was achieved in 94%, complete donor chimerism in 90% of patients. A 4-year incidence of relapse was 24%, and was significantly lower after MUD-HSCT (8%) than after MSD-HSCT (39%), but similar in children undergoing first (28%) or second/third HSCT (17%). A 4-year disease-free survival was 61%, but it was significantly better in myeloid (73%), than in lymphoid malignancies (41%). Thus, children with high-risk and advanced hematological malignancies and high-risk of life-threatening RRT can be transplanted effectively and safely using TREO-based regimens. Particularly favorable results were achieved in myeloid malignancies and in children undergoing second HSCT.
