Outcome of reduced-intensity allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for multiple myeloma.
Article in International journal of hematology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 evaluated single-institute outcomes of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) with a reduced-intensity conditioning regimen consisting of fludarabine (125 mg/m²) and melphalan (140 mg/m²) for multiple myeloma. Twenty-three patients (median age: 46 years) were evaluated. Stem cell sources were bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells from siblings (n = 4) and bone marrow from unrelated donors (n = 19). For graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis, cyclosporine A or tacrolimus with short-term methotrexate was given. Disease status at time of transplant was complete response in four patients, very good partial or partial response in 13, and stable or progressive disease in six. The median follow-up period of 7 survivors at analysis was 73.2 months (range 46.0-158.9 months). During the follow-up, disease recurrence or progression was observed in 21 patients, and was primary causes of death in 88% of the patients. The 5-year overall survival and progression-free survival rates were 38.6% (95% CI 19.3-57.7%) and 5.4% (95% CI 0.4-21.6%), respectively. Although allo-HSCT with this conditioning could be safely performed, further refinement of this approach aiming at more effective eradication of myeloma cells is clearly warranted.
