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

We performed a retrospective assessment of patient- and transplant-specific characteristics and outcomes for 4142 patients undergoing allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplant for myelofibrosis between 1995 and 2018 across 278 centres. Activity increased steadily across the four analysed eras (<2006, 2006-2010, 2011-2014 and 2015-2018). Median recipient age increased over time between the earliest and most recent cohort (49.4 years (range, 20.1-68) versus 59.3 years (range, 18.1-78.1). Increasing number of patients with a Karnofsky performance status <90 underwent transplant over time. Increased utilisation of matched unrelated donors was apparent (<2006, 22.5% versus 2015-18, 45.2%; p < 0.001). Decreased use of myeloablative conditioning, increased use of busulphan-based platforms and anti-thymocyte globulin was evident. Of note, rates of acute (a)GVHD grade II-IV by day +100 decreased over time (p = 0.027) as did rates of chronic (c) GVHD, predominantly extensive cGVHD (<2006, 36% (31-41%) versus 2015-18, 23% (21-25%); p = 0.001). Overall, significant factors associated with worse overall survival and non-relapse mortality (NRM) remained older age, use of donors other than matched sibling, recipient CMV seropositivity and a lower Karnofsky performance status (<90). Multivariable analysis demonstrated improvements in overall survival and reductions in relapse risk over time with stable NRM rates despite increasing numbers of older, less fit patients and use of unrelated donors.
