The Effect of Smoking and Pre-Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplant Pulmonary Comorbidity on the Incidence of Lung Graft-Versus-Host Disease and Post-Transplant Outcomes.
Article in Cancers, 2026. 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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesSmoking is linked to an increased risk of pulmonary complications and adverse outcomes following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (Allo-HCT). Unfortunately, data is rarely correlated with the incidence of GVHD and does not show whether smoking has a negative impact independent from underlying pulmonary comorbidities.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 407 patients who underwent Allo-HCT between January 2019 and May 2021 and evaluated the impact of smoking history and pre-transplant pulmonary comorbidities on the risk of outcomes including graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), overall survival (OS), and non-relapse mortality (NRM).
resultsPatients were divided into the following groups: Group A: smokers with pre-transplant pulmonary comorbidity, 40 pts (9.8%); Group B: non-smokers with pre-transplant pulmonary comorbidity, 71 pts (17.4%); Group C: smokers without pre-transplant pulmonary comorbidity, 105 pts (25.8%); and Group D: non-smokers without pre-transplant pulmonary comorbidity, 191 pts (46.9%). Smokers were also grouped by their smoking history (<10 pack-years (59 pts), 11 to 25 pack-years (50 pts), and >25 pack-years (35 pts)) and by smoking recency: Recent (until Allo-HCT), Former (quit > 1 year ago), and Remote smokers (quit > 10 years ago). Our results showed that Group A demonstrated increased chronic lung GVHD compared to the other groups (
conclusionsOur study demonstrated the negative synergistic effect of smoking history and pre-transplant pulmonary comorbidities on the incidence of lung GVHD, OS, and NRM.
