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

backgroundPeripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) donation is the primary procedure used to collect haemopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) for haemopoietic stem cell transplants (HSCT), however there is a clinical need to reduce collection times and achieve sufficient HSPC doses for successful engraftment. Short bouts of interval cycling transiently enrich peripheral blood with HSPCs and cytolytic natural killer (CD56

methodsIn a randomised crossover design, 18 adults (9 young: 22.7 ± 3.2 years, 9 older: 65.2 ± 12.9 years) completed 3 × 3-h trials: high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE, 9 × 2-min cycling at 80-85% heart rate (HR)max/9 × 18 min rest), moderate-intensity interval exercise (MIIE, 9 × 4-min cycling at 65-70% HRmax/9 × 16 min rest) and REST (180 min). Immune cell subsets, including HSPCs and CD56

resultsBy design, MIIE elicited lower average and peak HR and rating of perceived exertion than HIIE and was reported as more enjoyable. All cell subset concentrations increased following each interval of MIIE and HIIE. Across all participants, the estimated cell dose of total lymphocytes, monocytes, T cells, CD56

conclusionPersistent mobilisation of peripheral blood immune cells throughout 3 h of MIIE and HIIE evoked sustained numbers of CD56
