Successful neutrophil engraftment by reduced use of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with mycophenolate mofetil for graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis.

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
In allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT), most physicians in Japan utilize granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) at a high dose (HD) of 300 μg/m(2) per day for filgrastim to promote faster neutrophil engraftment. However, the necessity of the HD has not been validated under graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis by mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), which can also be expected to facilitate engraftment. In a total of 51 patients, we compared the clinical outcomes between a standard dose (SD) fixed at 300 μg per day and a HD of G-CSF. While time to neutrophil engraftment was not different in the HD and SD groups in patients receiving cord blood transplantation (CBT, 20 vs. 17.5 days, P = 0.243) or bone marrow transplantation (BMT, 11 vs. 10 days, P = 0.227), there seemed to be an increased risk of developing acute GVHD in the HD group with CBT (20 vs. 0%, P = 0.073) and BMT (57 vs. 24%, P = 0.165). Progression-free survival of patients in the HD group was likely to be worse compared with that of the SD group with CBT (P = 0.099). In this study, the clinical benefits of a HD of G-CSF could not be documented, and we find that the use of G-CSF at a SD after allo-SCT with MMF should be prospectively evaluated.
