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

Recently, several studies have been conducted to generate considerable evidence regarding unique treatments for severe aplastic anemia (SAA) in China. Haploidentical donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HID-HSCT) showed an overall survival rate (80.3-86.1%) comparable to those with immunosuppressive therapy (IST) and matched related donor (MRD)- and matched unrelated donor (MUD)-HSCT. Failure-free survival of HID-HSCT was also comparable (76.4-85.0%) to those of MRD- and MUD-HSCT and better than IST in patients < 40 years. Although these results are promising, HID-HSCT should be regarded as a salvage therapy when young patients fail to respond to IST. Porcine anti-human lymphocyte immunoglobulin (pALG) showed similar or superior overall response at 6 months compared to rabbit anti-human thymocyte immunoglobulin (rATG) (64.0-79.4% in the pALG-group vs.48.1-64.7% in the rATG-group) as a first-line IST. Promising hematological response (28.4-33.3%) was observed in patients with refractory AA following infusion of the mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) derived from the bone marrow of allogeneic donors. pALG can replace rATG as an immunosuppressive drug and MSCs infusion can be used as a second-line treatment for refractory SAA. We believe that this review contributes to refine the global practices for SAA treatment.
