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

Transplant associated microangiopathy (TA-TMA) is a potentially serious complication of stem cell transplantation. Though stopping calcineurin/mTOR inhibitor is the first step in managing TA-TMA, this is not always adequate. The pathophysiology of TA-TMA is different from microangiopathy seen in other settings. Many drugs have been used in TA-TMA with modest responses. Defibrotide has been explored in TA-TMA in the past with good results. However, its availability is erratic and cost of therapy very high. Hence its routine use in low middle income country (LMIC) is financially demanding. We report the use of low dose defibrotide safely and successfully in this case series. This is pertinent more to LMIC's and warrants prospective evaluation.
