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

Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a well-established procedure that has become a therapeutic mainstay for various hematological conditions. Prolonged thrombocytopenia following HCT is associated with a significant risk of morbidity and mortality, yet no universally recognized treatment protocol exists for such a complication. First-generation thrombopoietin receptor (TpoR) agonists as well as second-generation agents are known for their role in enhancing platelet production, and their use is expanding across various thrombocytopenic conditions. Therefore, we conducted this comprehensive review of the literature to provide an updated evaluation of the use of TpoR agonists and explore their efficacy and safety in the treatment of extended post-HCT thrombocytopenia. The literature search was conducted using PubMed database from 1996 through December 2023, using a predefined strategy with medical subject headings terms. We identified 64 reports on the utility of TpoR agonists, five of them were randomized controlled trials and the rest were retrospective observational studies and case series, with a total number of 1730 patients. Second-generation TpoR agonists appear more convenient than subcutaneous recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTpo) as they can be orally administered and exhibit similar efficacy in platelet recovery, as indicated by recent trial results. Among these agents, avatrombopag, unlike eltrombopag, does not require any dietary restrictions, which could be more favorable for patients. However, eltrombopag remains the most extensively studied agent. TpoR agonists had promising effects in the treatment of post-HCT thrombocytopenia with a good safety profile so far, highlighting the potential benefit of their use.
