Romiplostim versus Recombinant human thrombopoietin in umbilical cord blood transplantation: a single-center retrospective study.
Trial report in Annals of hematology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Delayed platelet engraftment (DPE) is a prevalent complication following umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT), accompanied by increased transplant-related mortality. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of romiplostim and recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) in enhancing platelet engraftment after UCBT. A total of 19 patients scheduled to receive UCBT were randomly assigned to the romiplostim group (250 µg once weekly from day 5 to platelet engraftment after UCBT, n = 7) or rhTPO group (300 U/kg once daily from days 5 to 18 after UCBT, n = 12). The median time of PLT engraftment was no statistical difference between rhTPO and romiplostim group: 29.5 days (range: 13-43 days) compared to 31 days (range: 23-40 days; P =.269). The median dose of romiplostim was 4 (range: 2-5 doses). Furthermore, the consumption of PLT was equivalent between the Ro group and the rhTPO group: 10 units (range: 7-26 units) and 10 units (range: 3-24 units; P =.694). All patients survived for one year and remained relapse-free. Romiplostim group had a lower incidence of acute graft versus host disease (aGvHD). No severe adverse effects were observed in any of the patients. This study demonstrated that romiplostim and rhTPO are both effective in promoting platelet engraftment after UCBT. Romiplostim was more practical and tolerable due to its cost and labor-saving benefits.
