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

backgroundAutologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is the standard treatment strategy for refractory or relapsed classical Hodgkin lymphoma (R/R cHL). However, a single transplantation is insufficient to cure the disease because of unfavorable risk factors. Herein, we evaluated the outcomes of single or tandem ASCT in patients with R/R cHL, especially in high-risk patients.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed R/R cHL patients who underwent single or tandem ASCT between April 2000 and June 2021 at the Beijing Cancer Hospital and Peking University International Hospital.

resultsA total of 134 patients were enrolled. Patients were allocated to a favorable-risk group (group A, n = 33), an unfavorable-risk group (group B, n = 81) that underwent single ASCT, and an unfavorable-risk group that underwent tandem ASCT (group C, n = 20). The median follow-up time was 99 months (range, 91-107 months), and no treatment-related deaths occurred after single or tandem ASCT. However, 27 patients (2 in group C) died during the follow-up period. The groups A, B, and C had 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates of 77.05%, 45%, and 74.67%, respectively (p = 0.0014), and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of 89.85%, 76.06%, and 95%, respectively (p = 0.18). Neither the median PFS rates of groups A and C nor the OS rates of all groups were reached.

conclusionsOur study discusses the advantages of tandem transplantation for high-risk patients with R/R cHL.
