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

backgroundFludarabine is a chemotherapeutic agent with lymphodepleting effects that is increasingly used as part of a conditioning regimen prior to allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Fludarabine is generally considered a relatively safe medication with only rare cases of cardiotoxic side effects. CASE PRESENTATION: Here, we present a case of a 30-year-old woman who was undergoing conditioning for a haploidentical cell transplantation for treatment of Fanconi anemia with a 5-day course of daily fludarabine infusion. After her second fludarabine infusion, she was noted to have ectopic atrial bradycardia that resolved with supportive therapy and completion of fludarabine infusion.

conclusionWe report the first case of ectopic atrial bradycardia associated with fludarabine. Although rare and transient, clinicians should recognize this rare cardiotoxic side effect of fludarabine.
