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

Clinically, stem cells with matched human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) must be selected for allogeneic transplantation to avoid graft rejection. However, adverse reactions still occur after cord blood transplantation (CBT). It was inferred that the HLA system is not the only regulatory factor that may influence CBT outcomes. Therefore, we plan to investigate whether the single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located in non-HLA genes are associated with the effectiveness of CBT. In this study, the samples of 65 donors from CBT cases were collected for testing. DNA sequencing was focused on the SNPs of non-HLA genes, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA4), CD28, tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily 4 (TNFSF4), and programmed cell death protein 1 (PDCD1), which were selected in regard to the literatures published in 2017 and 2018, which indicated that they were related to stem cell transplantation. Then, in combination with the detailed follow-up transplantation tracking database, these SNPs were analyzed with the risk of mortality, relapse, cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). We found that there were 2 SNPs of CTLA4, 1 SNP of TNFSF4, and 2 SNPs of PDCD1 associated with the effectiveness of unrelated CBT. These statistically significant SNPs and haplotypes would be used in clinical to choose the best donor for the patient receiving CBT. Moreover, the polygenic risk scores (PRSs) with these SNPs could be used to predict the risk of CBT adverse reactions with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.7692. Furthermore, these SNPs were associated with several immune-related diseases or cancer susceptibility, which implied that SNPs play an important role in immune regulation.
