Secondary failure of platelet recovery in patients treated with high-dose thiotepa and busulfan followed by autologous stem cell transplantation.

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.
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
Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) with high-dose thiotepa and busulfan is a treatment option for patients with central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma. We report here the occurrence of secondary failure of platelet recovery (SFPR) in three out of 24 patients who received high-dose thiotepa and busulfan followed by ASCT. Although there was no obvious abnormality in the primary platelet engraftment as well as the recovery of other blood cells, they developed SFPR with a median time to onset of day 38, and the platelets gradually recovered over several months with steroid therapy. During the same period, there was no development of SFPR among 50 patients who received ASCT with a conditioning regimen of MEAM (ranimustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan) or high-dose melphalan. However, one of the two patients who received a conditioning regimen of busulfan and melphalan developed SFPR, suggesting that the use of a busulfan-based conditioning regimen may be one of the risk factors for SFPR. It is important to be aware of this possible adverse effect of ASCT with high-dose thiotepa and busulfan to ensure timely diagnosis and prevention of subsequent serious complications.
