Impact of SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on rehabilitation of patients after high-dose chemotherapy with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: results of a monocentric, retrospective analysis.

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
objectiveBecause immunocompromised patients are particularly vulnerable during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, patients undergoing high-dose chemotherapy with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HDC/alloSCT) face the question of whether they should enter a rehabilitation stay. We therefore asked to what extent the pandemic has changed the acceptance of a rehabilitation stay and whether and how high the risk of infection for these patients should be assessed.
methodsWe analyzed all patients after HDC/alloSCT admitted to our rehabilitation facility during the period, since the first SARS-CoV-2 wave occurred in Germany (03/15/2020) and compared them with patients admitted to our rehabilitation facility before.
resultsAnalysis of our data showed a significant reduction in rehabilitation stays of patients after HDC/alloSCT during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Patients arrived for rehabilitation significantly later after HDC/alloSCT and were less likely to take immunosuppressive medications. The anxiety score in the HADS was lower and the platelet count was higher. In contrast, parameters such as age, sex, or leukocyte value did not play a role. None of the patients became infected with SARS-CoV-2 during rehabilitation.
conclusionsThe acceptance of a rehabilitation stay during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has changed, but there does not seem to be an increased risk for the patients.
