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

Partial lipodystrophy (PD), a condition similar to metabolic syndrome without obesity, is one of the late complications of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) performed during childhood. We aimed to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of PD. A cross-sectional survey was performed in a children's hospital, targeting patients treated for a malignancy or hematological disorder, and who were disease-free for > 24 mo. PD was defined as gluteal lipoatrophy and lipohypertrophy of the cheeks or neck associated with diabetes and/or fatty liver disease. In total, 65 patients were enrolled. Six patients (9.2%) were judged to have PD, all of whom had received 10-14 Gy total body irradiation. Compared with the patients without PD, patients with PD were older at investigation (P < 0.01), had a longer elapsed time following HSCT (P < 0.01), had more frequent disease recurrence (P < 0.05), and were more likely to have undergone multiple HSCT (P < 0.05). In addition, they had higher blood pressure and showed higher levels of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and triglycerides, whereas their adiponectin levels were significantly lower. In conclusion, a large number of patients developed PD following HSCT, with unfavorable metabolic profiles at a later age, especially when they experienced a complex disease course.
