Salvage hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for patients with higher leukemia burden in relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia: a ten-year study.

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
Patients with relapsed and refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R-R AML), especially those in non-remission (NR) have a poor prognosis after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). In order to optimize the entire allo-HSCT process for R-R AML patients and identify potential factors affecting clinical outcomes after HSCT, we retrospectively analyzed 44 adult patients with R-R AML who underwent salvage allo-HSCT while in NR or with concomitant extramedullary leukemia at the Institute of Hematology, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from 2013 to 2022. The 1-year and 2-year overall survival (OS) of the 44 patients were 55.3% (95% confidence interval [CI], 41.1%-74.3%) and 44.4% (95%CI, 30.2%-65.4%), respectively. The 1-year and 2-year cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) were 39.4% (95%CI, 38.0%-40.7%) and 53.0% (95%CI, 51.0%-55.1%), respectively, and the 1-year and 2-year leukemia-free survival (LFS) were 37.8% (95%CI, 24.8%-57.7%) and 20.3% (95%CI, 9.1%-45.3%), respectively. The 100-day, 1-year and 2-year treatment-related mortality (TRM) was 13.8% (95%CI, 13.3%-14.4%), 22.8% (95%CI, 21.9%-23.7%) and 26.7% (95%CI, 25.5%-27.8%), respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that patients who developed chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) after transplantation had lower relapse rate. Our analysis also indicated that patients with blast counts in bone marrow (BM) <20% and those with ≥20% had comparable clinical outcomes after allo-HSCT. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that R-R AML patients in NR or with concomitant extramedullary leukemia can benefit from allo-HSCT, regardless of leukemia burden at the time of transplantation. Patients who experience cGVHD after allo-HSCT may have lower relapse rate due to enhanced graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effects, but cGVHD should be controlled at mild to moderate level to avoid life-threatening complications.
