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

Pre-emptive DLI (pDLI) is an effective strategy in lowering the risk of relapse without significantly increasing the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in the case of T cell lineage mixed chimerism (MC) post allogeneic transplant in hematological malignancies. Many patients, however, fail to receive timely pDLI and have dismal outcomes, which are not taken into consideration. We compared long-term outcomes of 106 patients having T cell MC after day 60 and undergoing allogeneic stem cell allograft for acute leukemia from an unrelated donor (UD), with 111 patients having complete chimerism (CC). Fifty-three (56%) patients received prophylactic pDLI. Thirty-six patients (67%) had a response (RR), 17 (33%) had no response (NR), and fifty-two (54%) did not receive any pDLI (ND). OS was better in MC group as compared to CC (54% vs 43%, p = 0.04), mainly due to reduction in NRM (14% vs 25%, p = 0.05), and all grade acute and chronic GVHD. Within the MC group, response to pDLI was the only significant factor predicting OS, DFS, and relapses with NR and ND having unfavorable outcomes as compared to RR (p = 0.001). T cell MC in patients undergoing UD allografts with alemtuzumab is no longer an adverse prognostic factor, as compared to patients having CC, after timely implementation of pDLI.
