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

purposeThis study aims to evaluate the risk factors and prognosis for CMV diseases in hematologic malignancy patients without hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT).

methodsWe performed a case-control study (1:2) between 2012 and 2022. Adults with pathologic-confirmed CMV diseases (n=60) among hematologic malignancy patients were matched and compared to whom without CMV disease.

resultsLymphoma was the most common underlying malignancy, and gastrointestinal tract involvement was the most common CMV disease. In the case group, high-dose steroid administration and transfusion within one month before diagnosis were higher (p<0.001). Steroid administration (aOR=5.78; 95% confidence interval: 1.25-26.68, p=0.024), red blood cell transfusion within one month (aOR=14.63; 2.75-77.76, p=0.002), low BMI (aOR=13.46, 2.07-87.45, p=0.006), and hypoalbuminemia (aOR=26.48, 5.93-118.17, p<0.001) were independent risk factors associated with CMV disease. The 30-day mortality was higher in the case group and CMV disease was significantly associated with all-cause mortality (aOR=14.41, 3.23-64.31, p<0.001).

conclusionIn hematologic malignancy patients without HSCT, risk factors for CMV organ disease included high-dose steroid administration and RBC transfusion within one month, low BMI, and hypoalbuminemia. Overall mortality was significantly higher with CMV disease, and CMV disease occurrence was a significant risk factor for mortality.
