Discharge Disposition Following Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation: Predicting the Need for Rehabilitation and Association with Survival.
Article in Transplantation and cellular therapy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Many hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) recipients require rehabilitation due to deconditioning following intensive conditioning regimens and immune reconstitution. HCT recipients are preferentially discharged to home to avoid the risk of exposure to healthcare-associated infection in a rehabilitation facility (RF), with a caregiver who has been provided specific education about the complexity of post-HCT care. This study was conducted to determine the incidence of discharge to an RF following HCT, identify pre-HCT and peri-HCT risk factors for discharge to an RF, and estimate the effect of discharge disposition on overall survival (OS). This retrospective, matched 1:4 case-control study included 56 cases over a 10-year period from a single institution. Controls were matched by transplantation type (autologous versus allogeneic) and date of transplantation. The incidence of discharge to an RF was 2.2%. Controlling for disease, increasing age (odds ratio [OR], 1.09; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.04 to 1.15; P < .001), female sex (OR, 3.11; 95% CI, 1.32 to 7.32; P = .01), high-risk HCT Comorbidity Index (HCT-CI) score (≥3) (OR, 3.44; 95% CI, 1.39 to 8.52; P = .008), decreasing pre-HCT serum albumin (OR, 2.60; 95% CI, 1.07 to 6.38; P = .037), and development of acute kidney injury during HCT (OR, 4.10; 95% CI, 1.36 to 12.40; P = .012) were associated with discharge to an RF. Discharge to an RF was associated with worse OS and higher nonrelapse mortality (NRM) compared with discharge to home (1-year OS, 70.5% [95% CI, 55.8% to 81.1%] versus 88.8% [95% CI, 83.6% to 92.4%], P < .001; 100-day NRM: 9.5% [95% CI, 3.5% to 19.2%] versus 1.8% [95% CI, 0.6% to 4.3%]; P = .03). Discharge to an RF following HCT is a rare event but associated with poor OS. Modifiable risk factors for discharge to an RF, including serum albumin as a measure of nutrition and reversible HCT-CI components, should be prospectively studied to determine the effect of mitigation on discharge disposition and survival.
