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

Studies comparing the efficacy and cost of stem cell mobilization with intermediate-dose CY (ID-CY) and G-CSF against plerixafor and G-CSF, specifically in multiple myeloma (MM) patients treated in the novel therapy era, are not available. Eighty-eight consecutive patients undergoing mobilization with ID-CY (3-4 g/m(2)) and G-CSF (n=55) were compared with patients receiving plerixafor and G-CSF (n=33). Compared with plerixafor, ID-CY use was associated with higher median peak peripheral blood CD34+ cell count (68 vs 160 cells/μL, P<0.001), and CD34+ cell yield on day 1 of collection (6.9 × 10(6) vs 11.7 × 10(6) cells/kg, P<0.001). Total CD34+ cell yield was significantly higher in the ID-CY patients (median collection 16.6 × 10(6) vs 11.6 × 10(6) cells/kg; P<0.001). ID-CY use was associated with significantly more frequent episodes of febrile neutropenia (16.3% vs 0%; P=0.02), intravenous antibiotic use (16.3% vs 3%; P=0.03) and hospitalizations (P=0.02). The average total cost of mobilization in the plerixafor group was significantly higher compared with the ID-CY group ($28 980 vs $22 504.8; P=0.001). Our data indicate robust stem cell mobilization in MM patients treated with novel agents, with G-CSF and either ID-CY or plerixafor. When compared with plerixafor, ID-CY-containing mobilization was associated with significantly lower average total mobilization costs.
