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

For several malignant and nonmalignant disorders such as leukemias, lymphomas, or inborn errors of hematopoiesis, stem cell transplantation is the only curative option. Depending on the underlying cause of the disease, the conditioning regimens, source of the stem cells, and graft composition may vary. Possible stem cell donors are selected from databases considering existing major histocompatibility genes of the donor and the recipient. This is currently performed by matching human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A, -B, and -C for class I, as well as HLA-DRB1 and -DQB1 for class II. Stem cell transplantation for nonmalignant disorders is a specialty of pediatrics. While algorithms for donor selection in these cases are generally similar, the objective of optimizing a possible graft-versus-leukemia effect is less important. In this article, we aim to provide an overview on the current methods for HLA typing and the algorithms for HLA matching. We also address ethical aspects regarding children and minors as stem cell donors.
