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 investigate the relationship between clinical response and modification of BK viremia, we assessed retrospectively 32 cases of hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) after allogeneic hematopoietic SCT that were treated with i.v. cidofovir (CDV). They were 22 men (69%) and 10 women (31%) with a median age of 24 years, range 3-62. The median number of CDV doses was 3, range 1-8, and the treatment lasted for a median of 3 weeks, range 1-10. Clinical improvement of HC was observed in 27 patients (84%). In 12 of 32 episodes (37.5%), BK viremia was determined before every CDV administration and a complete clinical response was observed in 10 of 12 patients (83%), the reduction of BK viremia load being 1 log by 2 weeks after starting CDV. Nephrotoxicity related to CDV was observed in nine patients. Among 26 patients with 100-day follow-up, 4 of 4 patients who had a complete clinical response by 30 days were alive vs 16 of 22 (73%) who did not have the resolution of HC in this time frame. We conclude that in patients with HC, the response to CDV treatment is usually associated with a significant reduction of BK viremia load.
