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

Allogeneic hematopoietic SCT with reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC-HSCT) is increasingly adopted for the treatment of older adults with AML. Our goal was to verify for the first time, if center experience influences outcome of RIC-HSCT. Results of 1413 transplantations from HLA-matched related or unrelated donors for adult patients with AML in first CR were analyzed according to the level of center activity. Transplants were performed in 203 European centers between 2001 and 2007. The 2-year probability of leukemia-free survival (LFS) after RIC-HSCT performed in centers with the lowest activity (< or =15 procedures/7 years) was 43±3% compared with 55±2% in the remainder (P<0.001). The incidence of non-relapse mortality (NRM) was 24±3% and 15±1% (P=0.004), whilst relapse rate was 33±3% and 31±1% (P=0.33), respectively. In a multivariate model, adjusted for other prognostic factors, low RIC-HSCT activity was associated with decreased chance of LFS (hazard ratio (HR)=0.64; P<0.001) and increased risk of NRM (HR=1.47, P=0.04) and relapse (HR=1.41, P=0.01). Center experience is a very important predictor of outcome and should be considered in future analyses evaluating the results of RIC-HSCT. The reasons why centers with low RIC-HSCT activity have worse outcomes should be further investigated.
