Comparative retrospective analysis of cord blood transplantation with ATG-containing conditioning regimens and haploidentical stem cell transplantation: similar survival outcomes with reduced incidence of GVHD.
Article in Annals of medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundCord blood (CB) is widely used in treating haematologic disorders due to its broad availability, tolerance to significant histocompatibility antigen disparities, and low incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). The cord blood transplantation (CBT) with anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG)-containing conditioning regimens shows promise in this regard.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective review of data from patients who underwent CBT at our centre from August 2003 to December 2022. Patients undergoing CBT with ATG were matched with those who received HLA-haploidentical haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT). Propensity score matching (PSM) was utilized to form 105 matched pairs (140 patients) for comprehensive trial analysis.
resultsThe cumulative incidence of neutrophil and platelet engraftment was significantly lower in the CBT group. Patients in the CBT group exhibited significantly lower incidences of grade II-IV acute GVHD (aGVHD) and cGVHD compared to the haplo-HSCT group (8.57% vs. 29.52%,
conclusionOur single-centre retrospective long-term follow-up investigations indicated that although the implantation rate of CBT is lower than that of haplo-HSCT, patients undergoing CBT with ATG-containing conditioning regimens may have a comparable overall survival with a lower risk of GVHD compared to those undergoing haplo-HSCT.
