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

This retrospective study assessed the effectiveness of eltrombopag (EPAG), a thrombopoietin receptor agonist, in the treatment of poor graft function (PGF) following an allogeneic haemopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Complete response was defined as normalization of blood counts, whereas partial response was defined as transfusion independence. A total of 48 patients with full donor chimerism after HSCT, received EPAG for a median of 120 days (range 10-591). Patients with uni- bi- or tri-lineage cytopenia started treatment at a median of 95 days (range 17-877) after HSCT. The overall response rate was 75%: 24 patients had a complete response and 12 had a partial response. Positive predictors of response were an HLA-matched donor, a CD34
