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

To study the effects of M-CSF administration on long-term outcomes of unrelated BMT, we retrospectively analyzed data from patients transplanted through the Japan Marrow Donor Program. We obtained data from 54 patients who received M-CSF just after BMT and 500 patients who did not receive M-CSF or G-CSF acted as controls. There were no significant differences between the two cohorts with respect to OS, acute GVHD or relapse. Although the incidence of chronic GVHD was comparable between the two groups, extensive chronic GVHD was observed significantly less often in the M-CSF cohort than in the control group. Multivariate analysis identified M-CSF as a significant factor for attenuating extensive chronic GVHD (relative risk: 0.73; 95% confidence interval: 0.55-0.94; P=0.012). We also found the same results in matched-pair analysis. Our observation suggests the potential for clinical use of M-CSF to dampen severe chronic GVHD.
