Review in Current opinion in hematology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
purpose of reviewThe only current treatment capable of curing patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) is allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT). However, many MDS patients are older, often with substantial comorbid conditions, and the disease is heterogeneous. As a consequence, results of HCT vary considerably, and the practices of HCT for MDS are evolving. RECENT
findingsThe newly published modified International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R), developed for nontransplanted patients, also correlates with post-HCT outcome, with the patient's karyotype having the strongest impact. The presence of monosomal karyotype and various genetic and molecular markers have also been shown to have a prognostic value. The use of hypomethylating agents, before or after HCT, may reduce the post-HCT relapse risk or delay relapse. Low and reduced-intensity conditioning regimens have allowed to transplant growing numbers of older patients with MDS, and the development of novel regimens may lead to improved relapse-free survival even in patients with high-risk cytogenetics. The optimal stem cell source may differ for different patient populations and different disease risk categories. SUMMARY: Transplant results for MDS have improved in recent years. Some patients even in the eighth decade of life have been transplanted successfully. Ongoing studies are aimed at further reducing transplant-related toxicity, graft-versus-host disease and post-HCT relapse.
