Designing and conducting a clinical trial in blood and marrow transplantation.
Review in Best practice & research. Clinical haematology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Clinical trials form the cornerstone of the science-based approach to improving patient outcomes. A trial needs to be designed and performed carefully to provide valid evidence to inform medical science and to protect the safety and well-being of its participants. The development of a clinical trial involving blood and marrow transplant (BMT) requires special considerations, including the rare disease populations involved and transplant-specific outcomes of interest that necessitate appropriate analysis techniques to evaluate. This article reviews key considerations and best practices for the design and conduct of a clinical trial in BMT, including the selection of patient population, treatment groups, objectives and endpoints, targeted sample size, statistical analysis strategy, provisions for monitoring patient safety and trial progress, and dissemination of trial results. The practical application of these principles is demonstrated using BMT CTN 1301, a recently completed clinical trial evaluating regimens for chronic graft-versus-host disease prevention in transplant patients.
