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

Selecting the optimal donor is crucial for optimizing results of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). We analyzed outcomes based on donor type in 2809 myelofibrosis (MF) patients undergoing first allo-HCT between 2015 and 2021 at EBMT centers. Study outcomes included overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), relapse, non-relapse mortality (NRM), engraftment, and graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). Four groups were compared: matched sibling donor (MSD, n = 742), matched unrelated donor (MUD, n = 1401), mismatched unrelated donor (MMUD, n = 379) and haploidentical donor (HD, n = 287). After a median follow-up of 33.5 months, 3-year OS rates were 65.8%, 61.5%, 53.2%, and 57.7% for MSD, MUD, MMUD, and HD, respectively. Multivariable analyses (MSD as reference) showed that donor type significantly correlated with OS (HR: 1.63 for MMUD, HR: 1.42 for HD), PFS (HR: 1.38 for MMUD), NRM (HR: 1.73 for MMUD, HR: 1.47 for HD), engraftment (HR: 0.72 for MMUD, HR: 0.40 for HD), grade 2-4 acute GvHD (HR: 1.53 for MUD, HR: 1.69 for MMUD, HR: 1.49 for HD), and extensive chronic GvHD (HR: 0.77 for MUD, HR: 0.65 for HD). Donor type was not associated with relapse risk. In patients over 60 years, correlations between donor type and outcomes were consistent with those in the overall study population. In summary, with current practices, MF patients receiving MSD or MUD grafts achieve comparable outcomes. In contrast, MMUD and HD transplants have worse OS due to increased NRM. MMUD transplants have a higher risk of GvHD than HD transplants, but this difference seems to disappear with post-transplant cyclophosphamide.
