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

In this commentary, we discuss the reasons why umbilical cord blood (UCB) allogeneic stem cell transplants are more expensive than matched related and matched unrelated peripheral blood and bone marrow transplants in patients treated at pediatric centers. We compare results of our previously published study with the recently published study from the Center for International Bone Marrow Transplant and Research/Pediatric Health Information System and also highlight the factors that contribute to increased costs of UCB transplants.
