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

introductionCurrently, more than 10,000 matched unrelated donor transplants (MUDT) are performed annually worldwide. India has recorded a significant increase in the number of hematopoietic progenitor cell transplantation (HPCT) centers reporting transplants. The number of HPCTs increases by approximately 10% every year, with 1878 transplants reported by Indian stem cell transplant registries in 2016. However, published outcome data of MUDT in India are scant, with reports limited to autologous and allogenic matched unrelated transplants, which motivated us to present our MUDT data. AIMS AND

objectiveTo review the operations, and more importantly, the patient outcome data of a new registry in India. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe accessed an Indian HLA donor database with high-resolution HLA typing results of 7682 (until 31st July 2018) volunteer HLA donors. The typing results were uploaded to proprietary software. The search result was considered a "match" when a 10/10 potential HLA match was found. Patients who were found to be alive through mail communication and did not exhibit signs and symptoms of disease were considered to have disease-free survival (DFS).

resultsDuring the six years of operations of the database, 1165 searches resulted in 68 10/10 matches from the registry. Of these, 11 were MUD HPCT records. At a minimum follow-up of almost 11 months, seven recipients continue to exhibit DFS.

conclusionsThe patient DFS data prove that even a small registry with slightly more than 7000 donors can yield reasonably good patient outcomes.
