Hematopoietic cell transplantation comorbidity index and risk of developing invasive fungal infections after allografting.
Trial report in Bone marrow transplantation, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
We evaluated the potential correlation of the hematopoietic cell transplantation comorbidity index (HCT-CI) with the risk of developing post-transplant invasive fungal infections (IFIs). Between January 2009 and March 2015, 312 consecutive patients who received a first allograft entered the study. Low/intermediate HCT-CI risk score (0-2) was observed in 172/312 (55%), whereas high HCT-CI score (≥3) was seen in 140/312 (45%). Overall, 51/312 (16%) patients experienced IFI, defined as possible in 19 (6%), probable in 27 (9%), and proven in 5 (2%). Cumulative incidence of probable-proven IFI at 1 year was 8.5% with a significant higher incidence in patients with high HCT-CI (12%) vs. those with low-intermediate HCT-CI (5%; p = 0.006). There was a strong trend for a higher incidence of baseline severe pulmonary comorbidity in patients who developed probable-proven IFI (p = 0.051). One-year cumulative incidence of non-relapse mortality was higher in patients with IFI vs. those without, 49 and 16% (p < 0.001). By multivariate analysis, disease status at transplant and high HCT-CI, when combined with acute GVHD, were independently associated with the risk of post-transplant IFI. This study shows that a high HCT-CI predicts the risk of developing IFI and may indicate the need of mold-active antifungal prophylaxis in high-risk patients.
