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

Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is a severe pulmonary complication following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) with limited therapeutic options once refractory to standard immunosuppression. We conducted a pilot study from January 2018 to December 2024, enrolling consecutive patients with BOS defined by NIH criteria who failed glucocorticoids and calcineurin inhibitors for ≥4 weeks. Sixteen patients received salvage therapy with ruxolitinib 5 mg twice daily and nintedanib 150 mg twice daily (RN cohort) in continuous 28-day cycles for up to six cycles, while 37 contemporary patients served as controls. At baseline, NIH lung scores in the RN cohort were 18.8% NIH 1, 18.8% NIH 2, and 62.5% NIH 3. The median number of treatment cycles was 3.5 (range, 1-6). At 3 months, 11 patients (68.8%) achieved ≥10% improvement in %FEV1 from baseline (median = 26.5%, range = 15.6%-58.2%). By NIH lung response criteria, the overall response rate (ORR) was 62.5% (12.5% complete response, 50.0% partial response) in the RN cohort versus 13.5% (5.4% complete, 8.1% partial) in controls. Notably, hematologic toxicities were less frequent with RN therapy than in controls. These findings suggest that low-dose ruxolitinib combined with nintedanib is an effective and well-tolerated salvage regimen for BOS after allo-HSCT and warrant confirmation in a prospective phase II study.
