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

A Frailty and Functionality evaluation for alloHCT was implemented using existing resources. We describe the implementation of this evaluation across all ages and at first consultation, and correlate results with posttransplant outcomes in 168 patients. The evaluation consists of: Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS), Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL), grip strength (GS), timed up and go test (TUGT), self-rated health question (SRH), Single question of Falls, albumin and C-Reactive Protein (CRP) levels. Median time to perform the evaluation was 5-6 min. Median age was 58 years (range: 19-77) and median follow-up was 5.3 months. TUGT > 10 s (HR 2.92; p = 0.003), raised CRP (HR 4.40; p < 0.001), and hypoalbuminemia (HR 2.10; p = 0.043) were significant risk factors for worse overal survival (OS). CFS ≥ 3 (HR 3.11; p = 0.009), TUGT > 10 s (HR 3.47; p = 0.003), GS (HR 2.56; p = 0.029), SRH (<excellent) (HR 3.8 × 10
