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 combination of intermediate-dose cyclophosphamide (ID-CTX) and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) fails to mobilize peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) in approximately 20% of treated patients with multiple myeloma (MM).In this cohort study, patients with MM underwent PBSC mobilization with either an ID-CTX plus G-CSF plus recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) regimen (72 patients; TPO group), or an ID-CTX plus G-CSF regimen (70 patients; non-TPO group).In the TPO group, the median CD34+ harvest was 5.36 × 10 per kg of body weight (0.50-22.39 × 10 per kg of body weight), with a harvest success rate of 91.7% (66/72), and an excellence rate of 55.6% (40/72). In the non-TPO group, the median CD34+ harvest was 3.30 × 10 per kg of body weight (0.20-21.14 × 10 per kg of body weight), with a harvest success rate of 75.7% (53/70), and an excellence rate of 25.7% (18/70). The median count of the CD34+ cells collected, success rate of collection, and excellence rate of collection were significantly higher in the TPO group than in the non-TPO group (P=.0001, P=.01, and P = .0001, respectively). Time to granulocyte and platelet engraftment was faster among patients in the TPO group than that in those from the non-TPO group. No platelet engraftment delay (>21 days) was observed among patients in the TPO group, while 3 patients in the non-TPO group displayed delayed platelet engraftment.Adding rhTPO to the ID-CTX chemotherapy plus G-CSF regimen improved treatment efficacy in mobilizing PBSCs for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
