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

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an uncontrolled hyperinflammatory disorder driven by an overactive immune system that results in high mortality. Post-transplant-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (PT-HLH) is a type of secondary HLH that occurs following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). The clinical features of PT-HLH remain unclear and diagnostic and prognostic tools have not yet been established. Here, we retrospectively evaluated the clinical manifestations and outcomes of PT-HLH in 94 patients who underwent allo-HSCT. According to our PT-HLH criteria (hyperferritinemia and increased macrophage count in bone marrow), PT-HLH occurred in 12 patients (12.8%). The PT-HLH patients showed splenomegaly (P = .001), a higher risk of engraftment failure (P = .013), and an increased percentage of macrophages and hemophagocytes in bone marrow aspirates (P = .0009 and P = .0006, respectively). Moreover, univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that the survival rate was lower in PT-HLH patients than non-PT-HLH patients (P = .0017 and P = .034, respectively). This study defines the clinical features of PT-HLH and PT-HLH criteria that could be useful tools for diagnosing PT-HLH.
