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

In this issue of Blood, Palomo et al provide new insight into the mechanism of action of defibrotide as an endothelial protective agent, while Richardson et al present the encouraging final results of the phase 3 clinical study of defibrotide for the treatment of severe hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD), showing a 23% improvement in day +100 survival after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) compared with historical control.
