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

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an effective curative option for children with relapsed and high risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The effect of minimal residual disease (MRD) prior to transplantation has a significant impact on the overall outcome. We performed a retrospective analysis of children with ALL who underwent HSCT at our centre from 2002 to 2016. From 2002 to 2008 disease status was determined by morphology and karyotyping and from 2008 onwards by flow cytometry. A total of 46 children were transplanted for ALL at our centre. Of the 19 children who were MRD positive prior to HSCT 5 had a relapse after the transplant. Among the remaining 26 MRD negative children, only one child relapsed post HSCT. The EFS was 66.6% in the MRD negative group and 63.1% in positive group with no significant survival advantage of the first group over the second, (
