Homoharringtonine-Based Induction Therapy Reduces the Recurrence Rate of Pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.

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
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an effective treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Pediatric patients with AML who relapse after HSCT have an extremely poor prognosis. We performed a retrospective study of pediatric patients diagnosed with AML from August 2015 to October 2019 who were treated with HSCT. Kaplan-Meier analyses were used to evaluate overall survival (OS), event-free survival (EFS), and cumulative recurrence rate (CRR). Cox regression analysis was used to determine the association between the baseline characteristics and relapse. A total of 37 pediatric patients met the inclusion criteria. Twenty-eight (75.7%) patients survived, and 9 (24.3%) patients died. The OS rates of AML patients treated with HSCT were 89.2% ± 5.1%, 75.7% ± 7.1%, and 75.7% ± 7.1% at 1, 3, and 5 years, respectively, and the CRRs were 11.4% ± 5.4%, 24.7% ± 7.7%, and 33.1% ± 10.4% at 1, 3, and 5 years after HSCT, respectively; four of nine children who relapsed after transplantation died. Induction with etoposide rather than homoharringtonine and fungal infections could be high-risk factors for recurrence after transplantation. The association between homoharringtonine-based induction therapy and a low recurrence rate persisted after adjusting for age, sex, risk stratification, fusion genes, and fungal infections. This study clarifies the clinical features and poor prognosis of post-transplant relapse in pediatric AML and indicates the urgent need for effective therapy for patients who relapse after HSCT.
