Auto-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or chemotherapy? Meta-analysis of clinical choice for AML.
Synthesis in Annals of hematology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
For patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are not candidates for allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) or do not have a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched donor, it is unclear whether autologous SCT (ASCT) has a better prognosis after the first complete response (CR1) compared to further chemotherapy treatment. A meta-analysis evaluating ASCT compared to further chemotherapy for AML patients in CR1 was performed. The Medline, Embase, Cochrane Controlled Trials Registry, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and National Knowledge Infrastructure of China databases were searched for relevant literature as of May 26, 2023. Eligible studies included prospectively enrolled adults with AML and randomized first-time respondent patients who did not have a matched sibling donor. Fourteen randomized controlled trials were identified and included 4281 participants, of which 1499 patients received ASCT and 2782 underwent chemotherapy and continued follow-up. In patients with AML in CR1, a lower relapse rate was associated with ASCT compared to chemotherapy [odds ratio (OR) = 0.49, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.41-0.57]. Significant disease-free survival (DFS; OR = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.02-1.84) and relapse-free survival (RFS; OR = 2.78, 95% CI = 1.28-6.02) ASCT benefits were documented, and there was no difference in the overall survival (OS) when the studies were pooled (OR = 1.12, 95% CI = 0.85-1.48). The study results indicated that after the first remission, AML patients receiving autologous stem cell transplantation had higher DFS and RFS, similar OS, and lower relapse compared to patients undergoing chemotherapy treatment. This indicated that autologous stem cell transplantation may have a better prognosis.
