ABO Blood Type Incompatibility Is Not a Risk Factor of Outcomes for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Patients After Unmanipulated Haplo-identical Peripheral Blood Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.
Article in Annals of transplantation, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND Haplo-identical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has provided potential donors for patients lacking available HLA-matched donors. ABO blood type compatibility has been reported to be associated with HSCT outcomes. However, few studies have investigated the role of ABO compatibility in haplo-identical HSCT of AML patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 42 adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients who received unmanipulated haplo-identical peripheral blood HSCT at the Chinese PLA General Hospital between Jan 2013 and Dec 2017. We analyzed the role of ABO compatibility in engraftment, transfusion requirements, cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) viremia, acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), overall survival (OS), transplantation-related mortality (TRM), relapse, chronic GVHD, and post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD). RESULTS There were no significant differences between the ABO-matched group and the ABO-mismatched group in terms of engraftment, transfusion requirements, CMV and EBV viremia, OS, TRM, relapse, PTLD, and chronic GVHD. Univariate analysis revealed ABO incompatibility is not an independent risk factor of engraftment, transfusion requirements, CMV and EBV viremia, OS, TRM, relapse, PTLD, and chronic GVHD. We found a significantly higher cumulative incidence of aGVHD in the matched group compared with the mismatched group (80.95% vs. 42.86%, p=0.020). In multivariate analysis, ABO mismatch was associated with decreased risk of acute GVHD within 100 days after transplant (hazard ratio 0.492, 95% confidence interval 0.2123-1.14). However, the difference was not statistically significant (p=0.099). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated ABO incompatibility is not an independent risk factor of outcomes for AML patients who received unmanipulated haplo-identical peripheral blood HSCT. ABO compatibility might have limited value in haplo-identical donor selection.
