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

Graft versus host disease (GVHD) is a common complication of haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. This study examined the cutaneous microbiome in relation to the pathogenesis of cutaneous GVHD. Bacterial swabs were taken from several sites on 12 patients with cutaneous GVHD. Microbiotas were characterized by sequencing 16S rRNA bacterial genes on the MiSeq platform. Microbiome diversity in patients with cutaneous GVHD was reduced compared with healthy controls. GVHD was related to an increased abundance of Firmicutes and a reduction in Actinobacteria, especially in lesions. Non-parametric multivariate analysis of variance revealed that the skin microbial community disorders in patients with GVHD correlated with several clinical features of cutaneous GVHD. This study indicates that changes in the cutaneous microbiota in lesions could play a key role in the pathogenesis of cutaneous GVHD. Further studies are needed to explore the mechanistic relevance of these microbial dynamics, which may provide new clues to therapeutic interventions.
