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

Background: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an efficient treatment for numerous malignant and nonmalignant conditions affecting children. This procedure can result in infectious and noninfectious neurological complications (NCs). Objective: The objective of the study is to examine the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of NCs in pediatric patients following allogeneic HSCT. Methods: We performed a retrospective study of 746 children who underwent 943 allogeneic HSCTs in two large pediatric hospitals in Israel from January 2000 to December 2019. Results: Of the pediatric patients 107 (14.3%) experienced 150 NCs. The median follow-up was 55 months. Noninfectious NCs were more common than infectious NCs (81.3% vs. 18.7%). Factors significantly associated with type of NC (infectious vs. noninfectious) were underlying disease (immunodeficiency vs. malignant and metabolic/hematologic disease) ( Conclusion: Infectious and noninfectious NCs are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality following allogeneic HSCT in children. Further research is required to better understand the risk factors for different NCs and their outcomes regarding sequelae and survival.
