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

Thrombocytopenia following an allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (allo-HCT) is a potentially serious complication, and the efficacy of eltrombopag, a thrombopoietin receptor agonist, in this context is unclear due to inconsistent findings. Additionally, other post-allograft outcomes in eltrombopag treated patients such as transfusion independence, overall survival (OS), and non-relapse mortality have not been systematically reviewed. The aim of this systematic review/meta-analysis (SR/MA) is to evaluate the efficacy of eltrombopag in allo-HCT-induced thrombocytopenia by analyzing data from 16 eligible studies. Pooled rate of response for platelets counts achieving >30 × 10
