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

Objective: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) is a potentially curative treatment of choice for many hematological diseases. However, there are some transplantation-related risks. Predicting the risk-benefit ratio prior to AHSCT facilitates the choice of conditioning regimens and posttransplant follow-up. Hence, many risk models have been developed. The aim of the present study was to compare 6 different risk models that are clinically used. Materials and Methods: A total of 259 patients were enrolled in this study. The European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT), Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Comorbidity Index (HCT-CI), Age-Adjusted Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Comorbidity Index (HCT-CI-Age), revised Pretransplant Assessment of Mortality (rPAM), Acute Leukemia-EBMT (AL-EBMT), and Disease Risk Index (DRI) risk models were applied retrospectively. Results: The AL-EBMT, HCT-CI, and HCT-CI-Age scoring systems were found to be predictive for 2-year overall survival (OS) and 2-year non-relapse mortality (NRM) (2-year OS: AL-EBMT, reference vs. score 8.5-10, HR: 1.3, p=0.035; AL-EBMT, reference vs. score >10, HR: 3.8, p=0.001; HCT-CI: reference vs. score 1-2, HR: 1.4, p=0.018; HCT-CI: reference vs. score ≥3, HR: 2.5, p<0.001; HCT-CI-Age: reference vs. score 1-2, HR: 1.3, p<0.001; HCT-CI-Age: reference vs. score ≥3, HR: 3.2, p<0.001) (2-year NRM: AL-EBMT: reference vs. score 8.5-10, HR: 1.61, p<0.001; AL-EBMT: reference vs. score >10, HR: 3.3, p<0.001; HCT-CI: reference vs. score 1-2, HR: 1.3, p=0.028; HCT-CI: reference vs. score ≥3, HR: 2.3, p=0.011; HCT-CI-Age: reference vs. score 1-2, HR: 1.3, p=0.01; HCT-CI-Age: reference vs. score ≥3, HR: 2.4, p=0.003). In terms of the Kaplan-Meier estimates of 2-year OS and 2-year NRM, the risk scoring system with the highest predictive power was found to be AL-EBMT (2-year AUC: 0.59 and 0.60, respectively). The other scores were not found to be predictive for 2-year OS and NRM. Conclusion: In the present study at our bone marrow and stem cell transplant center, it has been demonstrated that the HCT-CI, HCT-CI-Age, and AL-EBMT are good predictors of 2-year NRM and OS.
