Clinical Insights and Potential Benefits of Stem Cell Transplantation for Constitutional Mismatch Repair Deficiency: A Case Report of Two Siblings.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) syndrome, caused by biallelic mutations in mismatch repair genes, is one of the most aggressive hereditary cancer syndromes. This report presents the clinical course of two brothers diagnosed with CMMRD. The first patient was diagnosed with T-cell lymphoma at the age of three and a half years, a relapse, and synchronous glioblastoma at the age of seven and a half years. After treatment with chemotherapy and neurosurgery, haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) was performed. The second patient was diagnosed with mediastinal T-cell lymphoma at the age of two and a half years and a relapse at the age of four and a half years. He also received chemotherapy and underwent HSCT. Both patients exhibited café au lait macules (CALMs), a common but non-specific feature of CMMRD, often confused with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) syndrome. This study highlights the phenotype of CMMRD syndrome, associated cancers, and the potential benefits of stem cell transplantation. Previous reports suggest that allogeneic HSCT might reduce subsequent haematological malignancies and increase survival.
