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

We compared the clinical outcomes of adults with acute leukemia that received single-unit umbilical cord blood transplantation (sUCBT) after conditioning with a busulfan/antithymocyte globulin (BU-ATG)-based regimen at University Hospital La Fe (n = 102) or double-unit UCBT (dUCBT) after conditioning with a total body irradiation (TBI)-based regimen at the University of Minnesota (n = 91). Nonrelapse mortality, relapse and disease-free survival were similar in the 2 groups. Multivariate analyses, showed more rapid neutrophil (hazard ratio [HR], .6; 95% confidence interval [CI], .45 to .80; P = .0006) and platelet recovery (HR, .59; 95% CI, .43 to.83; P = .002) after the BU-ATG-based conditioning and sUCBT. Although there was a lower risk of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) grade II to IV (HR, 2.81; 95% CI, 1.75 to 4.35; P < .001) after BU-ATG and sUCBT, the incidences of grade III to IV acute and chronic GVHD were similar between the 2 groups. Regarding disease-specific outcomes, disease-free survival in both acute myeloid leukemia and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients were not significantly different; however, a significantly lower relapse rate was found in patients with ALL treated with TBI and dUCBT (HR, .3; 95% CI, .12 to .84; P = .02). In the context of these specific treatment platforms, our study demonstrates that sUCB and dUCBT offer similar outcomes.
