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
Post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) is being increasingly used as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis post allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) transplanted in first complete remission (CR1). However, results may differ in patients transplanted in CR2. We retrospectively evaluated transplant outcomes of adult AML patients transplanted between 2010-2019 from 9-10/10 human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched unrelated donor (UD) in CR2. In total, 127 patients were included (median age 45.5 years, 54% male). Median follow-up was 19.2 months. Conditioning was myeloablative (MAC) in 50.4% and the graft source was peripheral blood in 93.7% of the transplants. Incidence of acute (a)GVHD II-IV and III-IV was 26.2% and 9.2%. Two-year total and extensive chronic (c)GVHD were 34.3% and 13.8 %, respectively. Two-year non-relapse mortality (NRM), relapse incidence (RI), leukemia-free survival (LFS), overall survival (OS), and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) were 17.2%, 21.1%, 61.7, %, 65.2%, and 49.3%, respectively. Time from diagnosis to transplant (>18 months) was a favorable prognostic factor for RI, LFS, OS, and GRFS while favorable risk cytogenetics was a positive prognostic factor for OS. The patient's age was a poor prognostic factor for NRM and cGVHD. Finally, the female-to-male combination and reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) were poor and favorable prognostic factors for cGVHD, respectively. We conclude that PTCy is an effective method for GVHD prophylaxis in AML patients undergoing allo-HCT in CR2 from UD.
