A fludarabine and melphalan reduced-intensity conditioning regimen for HSCT in fifteen chronic granulomatous disease patients and a literature review.
Review in Annals of hematology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a life-threatening immunodeficiency condition. To date, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only curative modality. We prospectively studied the outcomes of fifteen CGD patients undergoing HSCT with fludarabine and melphalan plus anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG). Most of the donors were fully matched siblings (n = 12). Cyclosporine A and methylprednisolone were used for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. CGD diagnosis had been suspected upon clinical symptoms and was confirmed in all patients by an abnormal neutrophil functional assay. The three-year overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) rates were 73.3% and 46.7%, respectively. With the median follow-up time of 33.12 months, the mean OS and EFS were 42.6 and 26.8 months; respectively. Eleven patients (73.33%) achieved full donor chimerism. Two stable mixed chimerisms with no sign of the underlying disease (13.33%) and two secondary graft failure (13.33%) occurred as well. The cumulative incidence of transplant-related mortality was 23.1% and it was two times more in adults compared with children. Three years GVHD-FS (free survival) was 57.8% in all patients and it was 70% and 42.9% in children and adults, respectively. Our results indicate that fludarabine, melphalan, and ATG have relatively favorable outcomes in CGD patients. Also, we suggest that HSCT should be performed as soon as a suitably matched donor is found.
