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

objectivesThe purpose of the study was to assess the validity of the hematopoietic cell transplantation-specific comorbidity index (HCT-CI) and of pulmonary comorbidity prior to HCT in terms of predicting non-relapse mortality (NRM) and overall survival (OS).

methodsIn this retrospective single-center study of 663 consecutive adult recipients of HCT, we stratified patients into groups by pulmonary comorbidity: low-risk, intermediate-risk, and high-risk. The predictive value of this pulmonary comorbidity score (PCS) was compared to HCT-CI.

resultsIn univariate analysis, the HCT-CI and the PCS were associated with OS after transplantation when comparing patients in high-risk groups with patients in low-risk groups. Using the PCS, the hazard ratios (HRs) of the 2-year OS in the entire population and in the myeloablative conditioning (MAC) group were 1.98 (p < .001) and 3.27 (p < .001), respectively, whereas the HRs using the HCT-CI were 1.83 (p < .001) and 2.57 (p = .002). The 2-year NRM incidence in the three risk-groups in the entire population was significant using both indexes. In the MAC group, the 2-year NRM was significant using the PCS (p = .003), but not using the HCT-CI (p = .23).

conclusionsOur study suggest that pulmonary function alone is a strong predictor of 2-year OS and NRM after HCT.
