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

backgroundThe selection of the best donor for each specific patient is crucial for the success of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). However, there is debate on the choice of the best donor when multiple suitable donors exist.

methodsBy using own data from two transplant centers, we have developed a calculator able to provide the patients' 2-year overall survival (OS) associated with each of the potential donor options during the selection process, in order to support the transplant physician during the choice. Data on 737 HSCTs with HLA-identical siblings, and unrelated or related haploidentical donors from January 2010 to July 2022 have been retrospectively obtained.

resultsPatients' age, disease, comorbidity index, and donor type were found to be significant variables able to predict the outcome with robustness (concordance index: 0.677). Estimates are provided within an example in the text showing outcomes with four donor options for a specific patient.

conclusionsWe present the prototype of a tool supporting the selection of the best donor, guiding transplant physicians during the delicate process of donor selection before HSCT. This approach relies on real data from the centers, reflecting their local clinical experience. Improvements are underway with a larger, ongoing multicenter study.
