Engraftment Syndrome: A Retrospective Analysis of the Experience at a Tertiary Care Institute.
Article in Clinical hematology international, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Engraftment syndrome (ES) is a clinical syndrome that occurs in the early neutrophil recovery phase following hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Although also described for allogenic HSCT, it is basically diagnosed in the context of autologous HSCT. We retrospectively reviewed 171 consecutive HSCTs performed between January 2013 and January 2015 in our Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT) unit and analyzed all cases of noninfectious fever and strong clinical features suggestive of ES in the peri-engraftment period for up to 7 days. We observed the incidence of ES to be 12.3% (16/130) in the autologous and 4.8% (2/41) in the allogeneic cohort. Among plasma cell disorders, which constitute 50% of our study population, the incidence of ES was 19.7%. Among the ES cases of autologous transplants, 81.2% (13/16) patients satisfied the Maiolino criteria (MC) and 87.5% (14/16) patients the Spitzer diagnostic criteria (SC). A total of 68.7% (11/16) patients satisfied both MC and SC, and two patients (12.5%) did not satisfy either (MC- SC-). There was no significant difference in days of hospitalization and usage of supportive care between ES and non-ES patients, and there was no mortality due to ES. On univariate analysis, female patients (p < 0.013) and those with diagnosis of a plasma cell disorder (p < 0.03) had higher risk of ES. In conclusion, the incidence of ES in our study population is consistent with that of many others, but severity evaluation needs exploration in larger cohorts with pragmatically modified diagnostic criteria.
