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
backgroundThe combination of cyclophosphamide (CY) and antithymocyte globulin (ATG) has been used as a standard conditioning regimen for matched related donor transplantation in patients with severe aplastic anemia. PROCEDURE: To decrease the regimen-related toxicity while maintaining appropriate engraftment and survival rates, fludarabine (FLU) was added to the regimen. Four pediatric patients received matched related donor bone marrow transplantation with CY (50 mg/kg×2) (instead of the 50 mg/kg×4 standard dosing), equine ATG (30 mg/kg×3), with the addition of FLU (30 mg/m×4). Graft versus host disease (GvHD) prophylaxis included a calcineurin inhibitor and methotrexate.
resultsNo grade 4 acute toxicities occurred during the first 30 days after transplant. All patients engrafted with normalization of peripheral blood counts and transfusion independence. One patient developed grade 1 to 2 acute GvHD, followed by chronic GvHD that resolved. With a median follow-up of 41.7 months, all 4 patients are alive and transfusion free, with complete donor chimerism. This combination of a low-dose CY/ATG+FLU regimen was overall very well tolerated and contributed toward a successful outcome including engraftment, chimerism, and survival.
conclusionThis small pilot study shows that this cytoreductive regimen could be considered as the standard of care for transplantation of pediatric patients with aplastic anemia from HLA-matched siblings.
