Factors Influencing the Use of G-CSF in Drug-Induced Agranulocytosis.
Review in Hematology reports, 2026. 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
Drug-induced agranulocytosis is a rare but life-threatening adverse reaction associated with numerous non-chemotherapy drugs. Management relies on immediate drug withdrawal, infection control, and, in selected patients, administration of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF). This review summarizes current knowledge on the determinants of epidemiology, clinical presentation, hematologic and biologic features, comorbidities, and outcomes influencing the decision to introduce G-CSF in drug-induced agranulocytosis. Evidence from observational studies and meta-analyses suggests that G-CSF shortens neutropenia duration and hospitalization, although its impact on mortality remains uncertain. The decision to use G-CSF should consider initial neutrophil count, presence of severe infection or sepsis, age, and comorbidities. Despite the accumulated experience, randomized controlled trials are still lacking, and treatment algorithms remain empirical.
