Outcomes of strategic alternative donor selection or suspending donor search based on Japan Marrow Donor Program coordination status.
Article in International journal of hematology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
In allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) from unrelated donors, delays in donor search are adversely associated with patient outcome. However, the optimal duration for either waiting for an unrelated donor or selecting alternative sources remains undetermined. Using data from the Japan Marrow Donor Program (JMDP) registry, we retrospectively analyzed 349 adult patients who had searched for unrelated donors. Two hundred and three patients received allo-HSCT from JMDP donors (Group A) with a median of 140 days required to identify a donor, 60 received allo-HSCT from alternative sources (Group B) after a median of 111.5 days at which point either all donor candidates had failed or the patient achieved a second or subsequent complete remission, and 77 suspended allo-HSCT (Group C) after a median of 310 days. The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate in Group A was superior to that of Group C (48.6 vs 38.5%, P = 0.001). Although Group B included more patients with high or very high disease risk index (DRI) at the time of allo-HSCT compared with Group A, the 5-year OS was not significantly different between Groups A and B (48.6 vs 40.9%, P = 0.07), indicating that switching to alternative donors may benefit patients with high DRI.
