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.

Abstract

backgroundChlorhexidine mouthrinse offers a cost-effective approach to preventing oral mucositis (OM) in anti-tumour treatment, yet it might cause tooth discoloration, unpleasant taste, and pain. To compare compound Staphylococcal lysostaphin (CSL) mouthrinse to chlorhexidine mouthrinse in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) recipients.

methodsThis randomised, controlled, non-inferiority clinical trial (NCT06791746) randomised adult patients who were scheduled for myeloablative conditioning and allo-HSCT to receive OM prophylaxis using CSL mouthrinse or chlorhexidine mouthrinse. The primary endpoint was the cumulative incidence of oral mucositis, with a non-inferiority margin of 15%.

resultsAmong 196 participants in the CSL mouthrinse group and 197 in the chlorhexidine mouthrinse group, ninety-four (48.0%) and 105 (53.3%) developed OM, respectively. The absolute risk difference was -5.3% (95% CI: -15.6, 4.7), with a upper limit of 95% CI did not exceed the non-inferiority margin. The average pain score was significantly lower with CSL mouthrinse (0.45 ± 1.06 vs. 0.85 ± 1.39, P = 0.002), supported by the analysis of distribution of pain score (P < 0.001). The time to OM onset and cumulative days with OM were comparable between the two groups (both P > 0.05).

conclusionsCSL mouthrinse had non-inferior prophylactic efficacy in reducing OM occurrence in patients undergoing myeloablative conditioning allo-HSCT compared to chlorhexidine mouthrinse, with less pain intensity.
