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

abstractCytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation is a major complication among seropositive allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation recipients; however, data on CMV reactivation after chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy are limited. We report the incidence and outcomes of 95 adult CMV-seropositive patients who received CAR T-cell therapy between February 2018 and February 2023. CMV outcomes were CMV reactivation (any viremia) and clinically significant CMV infection (cs-CMV). Thirty-one patients (33%) had evidence of CMV reactivation (any viremia), and 10 patients (11%) had cs-CMV. The median time from CAR T-cell infusion to CMV reactivation was 19 days (interquartile range [IQR], 9-31). The cumulative incidence of CMV (any viremia) was significantly higher among patients with grade 3 to 4 cytokine release syndrome (67 vs 28%; P = .01), and those who received corticosteroids (39 vs 21%; P = .03), anakinra (56 vs 28%; P = .02), or ≥2 immunosuppressants (41 vs 21%; P = .02). Receipt of corticosteroids (18 vs 0%; P = .004), tocilizumab (14 vs 0%; P = .04), anakinra (33 vs 7%; P = .008), and ≥2 immunosuppressants (20 vs 0%; P = .001) were all associated with cs-CMV. Receiving ≥2 immunosuppressants was associated with a twofold increase in CMV reactivation in multivariate analyses (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 2.27; 95% confidence interval, 1.1-4.8; P = .03). Overall, the 1-year mortality was significantly higher in those with CMV reactivation (57% vs 23%; P = .001). Immunosuppression, particularly with corticosteroids, for the management of CAR T-cell toxicities, is a major risk factor for CMV reactivation.
