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

purposeThe purpose of this study was to evaluate risk factors for bone pain in patients receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy and pegfilgrastim.

methodsIndividual patient data from 22 pegfilgrastim clinical trials were analyzed. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to evaluate risk factors associated with grade ≥2 bone pain and any grade bone pain in the first chemotherapy cycle and across cycles 1-6.

resultsOf the 1949 patients analyzed, 19 and 36 % had grade ≥2 and any grade bone pain, respectively, in cycle 1, and 28 and 51 % had grade ≥2 and any grade bone pain, respectively, across cycles 1-6. In cycle 1, history of bone pain (odds ratio (OR), 1.51; 95 % confidence interval (CI), 1.09-2.07) was associated with increased risk of grade ≥2 bone pain; age ≥65 years (versus <45 years; OR, 0.64; 95 % CI, 0.42-0.98), the European Union region (versus the USA region; OR, 0.32; 95 % CI, 0.20-0.52), colorectal cancer (versus breast cancer; OR, 0.14; 95 % CI, 0.05-0.41), and small-cell lung cancer (OR, 0.34; 95 % CI, 0.12-0.98) were associated with reduced risk of grade ≥2 bone pain.

conclusionsPotential risk factors for bone pain in patients receiving myelosuppressive chemotherapy and primary prophylactic pegfilgrastim identified in this study are younger age and history of bone pain. No other association with clinical factors and risk of bone pain was detected. Better understanding of risk factors for bone pain would be useful in identifying patients who may benefit from pain prevention strategies.
