Decline of forced expiratory volume in 1 s after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation is a good indicator for pulmonary damage and is associated with busulfan use.

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
Reduced pulmonary function is commonly observed after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT); however, its relationship with the development of noninfectious pulmonary complications (NIPCs) is unclear, and the impact of changes in pulmonary function test (PFT) values on HSCT outcome remains controversial. We conducted a retrospective study including 150 patients to investigate changes in PFTs and impact on clinical outcome. PFT data at around 1 year after HSCT were available in 84 patients, and showed a significant time-dependent decline in percentage predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 s and other parameters. We focused on %FEV1, calculated decline of %FEV1 from pretransplant to around 1 year after HSCT (Δ%FEV1), and divided patients into good-Δ%FEV1 or poor-Δ%FEV1 groups, using a cut-off point of 20% decline of Δ%FEV1. In the poor-Δ%FEV1 group, half of the patients developed NIPCs. In the good-Δ%FEV1 group, PFT values were maintained, whereas those of the poor-Δ%FEV1 group declined significantly. Multivariate analysis showed that busulfan use was a risk factor for %FEV1 decline, and poor-Δ%FEV1 was a risk factor for overall survival. These data indicate that decline of %FEV1 may be a useful indicator of pulmonary damage after HSCT, and is strongly associated with busulfan use.
