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

Reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens have been widely used for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) in elderly patients. After the emergence of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), most patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph-positive ALL) now achieve negative results for minimal residual disease (MRD) at HCT. In this study, we evaluated patients aged 50 years or more with Ph-positive ALL who received TKI before HCT, achieved negative-MRD at HCT, and underwent their first allogeneic HCT between 2008 and 2017. In total, 90 and 136 patients who received myeloablative conditioning (MAC) and a RIC regimen, respectively, were included. The median age of patients with MAC and RIC was 54 and 60 years, respectively. Even in multivariate analyses, RIC was not significantly associated with overall mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 1.09; P = 0.724), hematological relapse (HR, 1.97; P = 0.170), or non-relapse mortality (HR, 0.84; P = 0.540). Subgroup analyses suggested that RIC resulted in superior overall survival due to a lower incidence of non-relapse mortality in patients with a poor performance status or a high HCT comorbidity index. In conclusion, RIC is a reasonable option for elderly patients with negative-MRD at HCT.
