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

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a widely applied treatment for disorders mainly involving the hematopoietic system. The success of this treatment depends on many different patient- and donor-specific factors. Based on higher CD34+ yields and superior clinical outcomes associated with the use of male donors, males are generally seen as the preferred HSCT donor. In addition, female donors are notorious for bearing memory type lymphocytes induced by previous pregnancies; such alloimmune cells may provoke unwanted immune reactions such as graft-vs.-host disease in transplant recipients. Consequently, many transplant centers try to avoid parous donors, particularly when searching the best unrelated donor for a male patient. We recently showed that parous women with female offspring have an anti-male directed tolerogenic immune status comparable to that of nulliparous donors. As discussed in this article addendum, the sex of the donor's offspring combined with the presence of HY-specific T regulator cells are possibly better selection criteria than parity status per se.
