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

Relapse is common after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Although 1200 cGy total body irradiation (TBI) and cyclophosphamide (Cy) is the standard conditioning regimen, attempts to reduce relapse have led to the addition of a second chemotherapeutic agent and/or higher dose of TBI. We examined HSCT outcomes in patients age <18 years with ALL, in second or subsequent remission or in relapse at transplantation. Most transplantations were performed with the patient in remission. Patients received grafts from an HLA-matched sibling or unrelated donor. Four treatment groups were created: (1) Cy + TBI ≤ 1200 cGy (n = 304), (2) Cy + etoposide + TBI ≤ 1200 cGy (n = 108), (3) Cy + TBI ≥ 1300 cGy (n = 327), and (4) Cy + etoposide + TBI ≥ 1300 cGy (n = 26). Neither TBI > 1200 cGy nor the addition of etoposide resulted in fewer relapses. The 5-year probability of relapse was 30% for group 1, 28% for group 2, 35% for group 3, and 31% for group 4. However, transplantation-related mortality was higher (35% versus 25%, P = .02) and overall survival lower (36% versus 48%, P = .03) in group 4 compared with group 3. Our findings indicate that compared with the standard regimen, neither TBI > 1200 cGy nor the addition of etoposide improves survival after HSCT for ALL.
