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 retrospectively studied 108 marrow harvests from 105 pediatric sibling donors. The median age of donors was 8 years (range: 1-15) and the median body weight was 27 kg (range: 10-100). The volumes of aspirated marrow were 5.0-23.8 mL/kg donor body weight, and harvested bone marrow volume exceeded 15 mL/kg in 42% of the donors. A total of 100 autologous blood donations were performed, and eight donors had red cells salvaged from their harvests reinfused. The median Hb levels before and after harvests were 12.3 g/dL (range: 10.0-14.7) and 11.0 g/dL (range: 8.9-13.8), respectively. None of the donors received allogeneic blood transfusions or hematopoietic growth factors such as EPO and G-CSF before or after collection. Transplanted dose was 1.4-10.8 × 10(8) cells/kg recipient body weight without differences due to donor age. Higher concentrations of nucleated and CD34(+) cells were obtained from younger donors. All donors tolerated the procedures well, with no serious complications. Thus, children may safely donate marrow for allogeneic transplantation, and the yields of nucleated cells for engraftment are substantial.
