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

Primary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (p-HLH) can be cured with allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). It remains unclear whether HSCT outcomes are affected by the presence of different genetic mutations. We used data obtained from children who underwent allo-HSCT for HLH to examine the effects of genetic mutations on HSCT outcomes. Data from 153 paediatric patients in 18 paediatric stem cell centres were retrospectively evaluated. Patients were divided into four groups: 1) with PRF1 mutation (n = 46), 2) with UNC13D mutation (n = 38), 3) with STX11/STXBP2 mutation (n = 25) and 4) with Griscelli syndrome type 2/ Chediak-Higashi syndrome (GS2/CHS) diagnosis (n = 44). Statistical analysis showed no difference between the subgroups in terms of engraftment, VOD, acute GVHD, chronic GVHD, TRM, OS and EFS rates. The most important factor affecting OS and EFS in all genetic subgroups was remission status before HSCT. The 5-year EFS values for children with mutations in PRF1, UNC13D, STX11/STXBP2 and GS2/CHS were 71%, 66.6%, 74% and 66.7, respectively (log-rank >0.05). However, with prospective studies covering more patients, and creating different genetic subgroups by performing more detailed genetic analyses, special approaches for different genetic subgroups can be revealed in the future.
