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 conducted a retrospective study to evaluate the outcome of 94 consecutive patients with high-risk hematological malignancies who received allo-PBSCT, following idarubicin (IDA)-intensified BUCY2 (IDA-BUCY2) myeloablative conditioning regimens (n=53) and BUCY2 conditioning regimens (n=41). IDA 15 mg/m(2) once daily was administered by continuous infusion on days -11 to -9, followed by BU, 3.2 mg/kg in divided doses daily, on days -6 to -4, and i.v. injection of CY, 1.8 g/m(2) once daily on days -3 to -2 in the IDA-BUCY2 group. The relapse rate in patients in the IDA-BUCY2 and BUCY2-conditioning regimens group was 18.9 and 39%, respectively (P=0.030). There was no significant difference in terms of TRM. The cumulative probabilities of OS and disease-free survival at 2 years for patients conditioned with the IDA-BUCY2 and BUCY2 regimens were 65.3% vs 46.8% (P=0.038), and 63.5% vs 43.4% (P=0.025), respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that IDA-BUCY2 regimens and limited chronic GVHD were the only two factors resulting in improved survival and reduced relapse rate. This retrospective study suggests that IDA-intensified BUCY2 may be substituted for BUCY2 as conditioning regimen for patients with high-risk hematological malignancies.
