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

purposeTo evaluate the feasibility and safety of prophylactic donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) to improve survival outcomes in pediatric patients with acute leukemia (AL).

methodsChildren with AL who received prophylactic DLI transfusion after allogeneic HSCT between October 2015 and October 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.

resultsIn total, 101 pediatric patients with AL were enrolled in this study, comprising 42 acute lymphoblastic leukemia, 54 acute myeloid leukemia, and five mixed-phenotype acute leukemia cases. The median age at transplantation was 7.52 ± 3.98 years. The median time from HSCT to first DLI was 306.26 days (range 51.00-1016.00). Patients received a median cumulative dose of 5.00 × 10⁷/kg (0.50-36.20). Post-DLI GVHD occurred in 46.53% of cases. Most events were mild; severe GVHD occurred in only five cases. After prophylactic DLI transfusion, the 5-year overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) rates were 88.74% ± 3.70% and 79.66% ± 4.92%, respectively. The difference of the OS and EFS in patients with GVHD and without GVHD after prophylactic DLI transfusion were not statistically significant (χ

conclusionProphylactic DLI transfusion following allogeneic HSCT remains a safe and effective treatment for pediatric patients with AL and can reduce post-transplant relapse and improve long-term survival.
