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

Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is an effective treatment for multiple myeloma; however, the development of chronic graft-versus-host disease remains a significant challenge. Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is one of the complications. Even with available medications for treatment, the prognosis of BOS remains poor. We present a 32-year-old female with multiple myeloma experienced BOS 6 months after allo-HSCT. Even with medical treatment, her clinical condition and pulmonary function was deteriorating. Based on the indication of a BODE (Body-mass index, Obstruction, Dyspnoea and Exercise) index of 7, she underwent bilateral lung transplantation 33 months after allo-HSCT. Three months post-operation, there was a significant improvement in pulmonary function. After approximately 5 years of follow-up, her lung function remains stable, and she is able to work and live a normal life. Lung transplantation may be an effective therapeutic strategy for BOS developed after allo-HSCT.
