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

The present study was conducted to investigate Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) reactivation after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) in Korean children living in an area of a high seroprevalence against EBV and to determine the impact of recipient age on EBV reactivation. Medical records of 248 children and adolescents who had received allogeneic HCT were retrospectively reviewed. The trends of EBV reactivation and post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) were evaluated and compared between younger (≤10 years old) and older (11-20 years old) groups. EBV reactivation occurred in 177 cases (71.4 %) and high-level EBV reactivation, defined as a virus DNA titer of 300,000 copies/mL or higher, occurred in 21 cases (8.5 %). PTLD was diagnosed in five cases (2.0 %), and one of these patients died. The EBV reactivation rate was not significantly different between the two age groups; however, high-level reactivation and PTLD were more significantly frequent in the older than in the younger group (P = 0.030 and P = 0.026, respectively). In conclusion, older children and adolescents are more likely to experience high-level EBV reactivation and PTLDs, and higher EBV DNA titers than those previously reported may be a predictor of PTLD in areas with a high seroprevalence against EBV.
