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

The recent improvements in the outcomes of severe aplastic anemia (SAA) patients who received allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) from unrelated donors (URD) suggest the possibility of its alternative first-line treatment. To address this issue, results of adult SAA patients receiving allogeneic SCT were compared between the following three donor-type groups: 8/8-matched sibling (MSD; n = 153), 8/8 well-matched unrelated (WM-URD; n = 72), and 6-7/8 partially matched unrelated (PM-URD; n = 33). Proportion of patients who experienced immunosuppressive treatment failures was significantly higher in the URD groups than in the MSD group (P< 0.01). The incidences of graft failure and transplant-related mortality, and graft-vs.-host disease-free, failure-free survival rates of the MSD, WM-URD, and PM-URD groups were 14.6, 0, and 0% (P< 0.01); 6.1, 10.3, and 21.7% (P= 0.03); and 76.7, 55.5, and 51.5% (P< 0.01), respectively. The overall survival (OS) rate of the MSD group (93.9%) was higher than that of the PM-URD (78.3%; P < 0.01) group, but not to that of the WM-URD (86.2%; P= 0.18) group. Our study showed comparable OS between the MSD group and WM-URD group, which suggest that the URD-SCT can be used as a first-line treatment for adult SAA patients with WM-URD.
