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

Pretransplant pulmonary function testing (PFT) is standard before hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), but few centers complement it with objective functional capacity assessment. At our institution, a 3-min step exercise test is performed at the time of PFTs, generating two distinct measures: exercise duration (a functional capacity surrogate) and oxygen desaturation (a gas exchange measure). Whether either component adds prognostic value beyond PFTs is unknown. The primary objective of the study was whether step-derived variables added predictive value beyond a baseline model containing age, sex, transplant type, FEV
