Is there a difference in post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder in adults after solid organ and haematologic stem cell transplantation? Experience in 41 patients.

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
objectiveTo determine if there is a difference in post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) in adults after solid organ transplantation (SOT) and haematologic stem cell transplantation (HST).
methodsIn this institutional review board-approved Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act-compliant study, we reviewed clinical data and imaging at the time of diagnosis in 41 patients (26 SOT and 15 HST) (31 males and 10 females; mean age 51 years) with histopathology-confirmed PTLD seen at our institution from 2004 through 2013. Statistical analysis was performed to assess difference in distribution and survival between SOT and HST cohorts.
resultsSOT: 17 lung/cardiac, 8 renal and 1 liver transplant recipients. HST: 13 leukaemia/lymphoma and 2 patients with aplastic anaemia. Median time to diagnosis: SOT 3.0 years; HST 6 months (Fisher's exact test; p = 0.0011). There was no statistically significant difference in distribution of PTLD after SOT and HST with nodes (15/26; 8/15), lung (10/26; 5/15) and bowel (6/26; 4/15) being the most common sites. Hepatic (3/26) and neurologic (2/26) involvement occurred in only SOT cohort while splenic PTLD (5/15) occurred more often in HST cohort. Death occurred earlier in HST (9/15; 2 weeks) than SOT cohort (12/26; 11 months) (Wilcoxon test; p = 0.0188).
conclusionPTLD did not differ significantly in distribution between SOT and HST cohorts. PTLD after HST occurred early and had shorter survival. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: The most common sites of PTLD were the nodes, lung and bowel. Distribution of PTLD does not differ significantly between patients with SOT and HST. PTLD after HST occurs early and has poor survival compared with PTLD after SOT.
