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

Engraftment syndrome (ES) has been associated with the surge of neutrophils and cytokines, which is similar to the presumed underlying pathophysiology behind acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD). However, there has been no meta-analysis to evaluate the association; therefore, the team attempted to verify an association between ES and aGVHD through meta-analysis. The team searched for titles of articles in MEDLINE (PubMed), the Cochrane Library, and the EMBASE database up until December 2018 that evaluated the association between ES and aGVHD and conducted a random effect meta-analysis of 8 studies involving a total of 1,945 participants to report the pooled odds ratio (OR) for association of ES and aGVHD. The team found a significantly increased odds of developing aGVHD in patients with ES with the pooled OR of 2.76 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.64-4.63) and an I
