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

Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is a long-term complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation associated with poor quality of life and increased morbidity and mortality. Currently, there are several approved treatments for patients who do not respond to steroids, such as ruxolitinib. Nevertheless, a significant proportion of patients fail second-line treatment, indicating the need for novel approaches. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been considered a potential treatment approach for steroid-refractory cGVHD. To evaluate the safety and efficacy of repeated infusions of MSCs, we administered intravenous MSCs every two weeks to ten patients with severe steroid-refractory cGVHD in a prospective phase I clinical trial. Each patient received a total of four doses, with each dose containing 1 × 10
