The International Prognostic Score and HIV status predict red cell concentrate transfusion needs in Hodgkin lymphoma.
Article in Leukemia & lymphoma, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Despite the burden of anemia among Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients, data evaluating red cell concentrate transfusion are limited. We retrospectively studied 285 newly diagnosed HL patients who received first-line adriamycin, bleomycin sulfate, vinblastine sulfate, and dacarbazine (ABVD) treatment at Groote Schuur Hospital, Cape Town. HIV prevalence in the cohort was 39.5% and 74.2% of patients had advanced stage HL. Patient prognosis was scored using the HL International Prognostic Score (IPS-7) and HL IPS-3. Seventy (24.6%) patients were transfused with a median of 2 (IQR 1-5) units per patient. Compared to HIV-negative patients, more HIV-positive patients were transfused (14.1% vs. 40.4%,
