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

Severe aplastic anemia (SAA) is a bone marrow failure syndrome that can be treated with hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) or immunosuppressive (IS) therapy. A retrospective cohort of 56 children with SAA undergoing transplantation with fludarabine-cyclophosphamide-ATG-based conditioning (FluCyATG) was analyzed. The endpoints were overall survival (OS), event-free survival (EFS), cumulative incidence (CI) of graft versus host disease (GVHD) and CI of viral replication. Engraftment was achieved in 53/56 patients, and four patients died (two due to fungal infection, and two of neuroinfection). The median time to neutrophil engraftment was 14 days and to platelet engraftment was 16 days, and median donor chimerism was above 98%. The overall incidence of acute GVHD was 41.5%, and that of grade III-IV acute GVHD was 14.3%. Chronic GVHD was diagnosed in 14.2% of children. The probability of 2-year GVHD-free survival was 76.1%. In the univariate analysis, a higher dose of cyclophosphamide and previous IS therapy were significant risk factors for worse overall survival. Episodes of viral replication occurred in 33/56 (58.9%) patients, but did not influence OS. The main advantages of FluCyATG include early engraftment with a very high level of donor chimerism, high overall survival and a low risk of viral replication after HCT.
