Improvement in Cardiac Morphology Demonstrated by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Echocardiography after Haploidentical Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Adults with Sickle Cell Disease.
Article in Transplantation and cellular therapy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Cardiopulmonary complications account for approximately 40% of deaths in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD). Diffuse myocardial fibrosis, elevated tricuspid regurgitant jet velocity (TRV) and iron overload are all associated with early mortality. Although HLA-matched sibling hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) offers a potential cure, less than 20% of patients have a suitable donor. Haploidentical HCT allows for an increased donor pool and has recently demonstrated improved safety and efficacy. Our group has reported improved cardiac morphology via echocardiography at 1 year after HCT. Here we describe the first use of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR), the gold standard for measuring volume, mass, and ventricular function, to evaluate changes in cardiac morphology post-HCT in adults with SCD. We analyzed baseline and 1-year data from 12 adults with SCD who underwent nonmyeloablative haploidentical peripheral blood HCT at the National Institutes of Health. Patients underwent noncontrast CMR at 3 T, echocardiography, and laboratory studies. At 1 year after HCT, patients showed marked improvement in cardiac chamber morphology by CMR, including left ventricular (LV) mass (70.2 to 60.1 g/m
