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

backgroundHematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) may be detrimental to bone health and vitamin D status in children. PROCEDURE: We conducted a prospective, multicenter cohort study to identify changes in bone health markers during the first 100 days after allogeneic HCT in 26 children. Bone mineral density (BMD), bone mineral content (BMC), and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) concentrations were measured at baseline, 30 days, and 100 days after HCT.

resultsMean (SD) BMD and BMC Z-scores (-0.48 ± 1.09 and -0.98 ± 1.26, respectively) were normal at baseline. Repeated-measures analysis revealed significant declines in BMD and BMC Z-scores over the 100 day study period, when adjusted for age, sex, Tanner stage, lean mass, fat mass, resting energy expenditure, total energy intake, insulin sensitivity, serum phosphorus, and inpatient steroid intake. Adjusted mean (SE) 25OHD concentrations declined from 29.2 (3.1) ng/ml at baseline, to 17.7 (1.8) ng/ml at 100 days after HCT. Vitamin D deficiency (25OHD <20 ng/ml) was present in 50% of patients 100 days after HCT.

conclusionsSignificant bone loss and vitamin D deficiency occur in children in the first 100 days following allogeneic HCT. Strategies to diminish acute bone loss during HCT in children are needed.
