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 investigate the effects of iron chelation therapy on hematopoietic reconstitution and related complications of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).
methodsVarious clinical parameters were analyzed retrospectively in 57 MDS patients with iron overload who received allo-HSCT. According to the level of serum ferritin (SF) before transplantation divided patients into two groups: the effective treatment group (SF<1 000 μg/L) and iron overload group (SF≥1 000 μg/L).
results①30/57 cases were received iron chelation treatment, 27/57 patients didn' t received iron chelating therapy before transplantation. 19/30 cases were in the effective treatment group, and the median SF level before transplantation was 561 (223-846) μg/L. 11/30 cases were in the iron overload group, and the median SF level before transplantation was 1 262 (1 100-2 352) μg/L. The median SF level was 1 540 (1 320-3 112) μg/L of 27 patients didn't received iron chelating therapy before transplantation. ② The rate of fully-engraftment in the effective treatment group and iron overload group was 19 cases (100.0% ) and 34 cases (89.5% ), myeloid reconstitution of 12(10-18) and 12(11-30) days respectively (P=0.441), and platelet reconstitution of 13(12-30) and 15 (10-32) days respectively (P=0.579). ③The infection risk rate of the effective treatment group was less than iron overload group [36.8% (7/19) vs 82.4% (28/34), P=0.002]. ④The incidence of aGVHD in effective treatment group was less than iron overload group [26.3%(5/19) vs 64.7%(22/34), P= 0.010]. All patients of the effective treatment group were Ⅰ/Ⅱ degree. 16 cases were Ⅰ/Ⅱ degree and 6 cases were Ⅲ/Ⅳ degree in the iron overload group. ⑤ 6 cases of iron overload group accepted iron chelation treatment early post-transplantation, and SF level decreased from 2 870 (2 205-3 580) μg/L to 1 270 (1 020-1 650) μg/L. ⑥The difference of median disease-free survival time between the effective treatment group and iron overload group was not statistically significant [28.9 (0.3-89.5) months vs 21.2(0.1-81.0) months, χ(2)=3.751, P=0.053].
conclusionsIron overload obviously increased transplant-related complications, and effective iron chelation therapy before transplantation significantly decreased the incidence of infection and degree of aGVHD, thereby reduced the non-relapse mortality in patients with MDS.
