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

The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of pretransplant transfusion of packed red cells (PRCs) on outcome after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) in severe aplastic anemia (SAA). A total of 221 adult SAA patients receiving allogeneic SCT were analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups according to the amount of pretransplant transfusion before SCT: the low transfusion group (⩽32 PRC units, n=164) and the high transfusion group (>32 PRC units, n=57). The incidence of engraftment failure was not different between the two groups. The incidence of acute GvHD (grades II-IV) was higher in the high transfusion group than in the low transfusion group (P=0.04), and the incidences of chronic extensive GVHD were not significantly different (P=0.136). The high transfusion group had higher 5-year transplant-related mortality (TRM) (24.8% vs 6.8%, P<0.001) and lower overall survival (OS) (72.3% vs 91.9%, P<0.001) than those in the low transfusion group. Multivariate analysis revealed that the high transfusion group and unrelated donor type were independent prognostic factors affecting OS. These results indicate that a history of higher pretransplant transfusion of PRCs was associated with increased TRM and decreased OS, suggesting that iron overload had a negative impact on outcome after SCT in SAA.
