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

Adult umbilical cord blood transplantation (CBT) has emerged as an important option for patients lacking matched related (MRD) and matched unrelated donors (MUD). We compared chronic GVHD (cGVHD) incidence, immunosuppression burden and late infections and hospitalizations in consecutive patients undergoing CBT (n=51) versus peripheral blood MUD transplant (n=57) at our center between June 2009 and April 2014. At 3 years post transplantation, the cumulative incidence (CI) of moderate to severe cGVHD was 44% following MUD versus 8% following CBT (P=0.0006) and CI of any cGVHD was 68% following MUD versus 32% following CBT (P=0.0017). Median time to being off immunosuppression among CB patients was 268 days versus not reached among MUD patients (P<0.0001). Late infections and late hospitalized days were reduced in CB patients (P=0.1 and <0.001, respectively). Three-year CI of transplant-related mortality (TRM) and relapse as well as 3-year overall survival (OS) were similar following CB and MUD transplantation. We demonstrate a significantly lower incidence of cGVHD, immunosuppression burden and late complication rate following UCB versus peripheral blood MUD transplant without decreased OS, increased relapse or early TRM. Combined with the rapid availability of UCB, these findings have led our center to move primarily to UCB over peripheral blood MUD when a MRD is not available.
