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
Introduction: Haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (haplo-HCT) using post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCY) has become a standard approach for patients lacking HLA-matched donors. While effective in reducing graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), concerns about PTCY-associated cardiovascular toxicity remain. This study investigates the incidence, predictors, and impact of early cardiac events (ECE) in haplo-HCT recipients. Methods: We conducted a retrospective, multicenter analysis of 268 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treated with anthracycline-based induction regimens and undergoing their first haplo-HCT with PTCY (50 mg/kg/day on days +3 and +4) between 2011 and 2022. ECEs, defined as any new cardiac event within 100 days post-transplant, were analyzed using cumulative incidence functions considering death and relapse as competing risks. Risk factors and the impact on non-relapse mortality (NRM) and overall survival (OS) were assessed via univariate and multivariate regression models. Results: The median patient age was 57 years (range: 18-79), and pre-transplant comorbidities included hypertension (22.4%), dyslipidemia (13.1%), diabetes mellitus (6.7%), and prior cardiac history (14.2%). ECEs occurred in 23 patients (8.6%) at a median of 19 days post-transplant (IQR: 5-66), with a day +100 cumulative incidence of 8.6% (95% CI: 6.1-12.3). The most frequent complications were pericardial effusion/pericarditis (43.5%), arrhythmias (30.4%), and heart failure (17.4%). Severe ECEs (CTCAE grade 3-4) were observed in 30.4% of cases, and four deaths (17.4%) were directly attributed to ECEs. Univariate analysis identified dyslipidemia (HR: 3.87, p=0.001), hypertension (HR: 2.76, p=0.015), and moderate-severe veno-occlusive disease (HR: 4.94, p=0.002) as significant predictors of ECE. ECEs were associated with lower OS (HR: 1.78, p=0.04) and higher NRM (HR: 2.87, p=0.005). Discussion: While the incidence of ECEs following haplo-HCT with PTCY was relatively low, their occurrence significantly worsened transplant outcomes. These findings underscore the importance of cardiovascular risk assessment and structured cardiac monitoring to mitigate complications in haplo-HCT recipients.
