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

purposeExplore patient-reported outcomes (PROs), including health-related quality of life (HRQoL), satisfaction with therapy, impact of the therapy on work and daily life, and concerns related to the therapy and identify variables associated with PROs in persons with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) receiving tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).

methodsAcross-sectional questionnaire was distributed to adults with chronic phase CML and answered anonymously. SF-36 Health Survey was used to measure HRQoL. Our focus was on the physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS) components.

resultsData from 819 respondents receiving TKI-therapy ≥3 months and achieving a complete cytogenetic response were analyzed. Median age was 42 years (range 18-88 years). 652 (80%) were receiving imatinib. Median TKI-therapy duration was 36 months (range 3-178 months). 629 (77%) paid some or all of their TKI costs. In multivariate analyses, female sex, increasing age, lower education level, increasing co-morbidities, concomitant medication, ≥3 symptoms, moderate or severe symptom, switch from imatinib to a second-generation TKI, and higher annual out-of-pocket expense of TKI were significantly associated with lower PCS and/or MCS. However, TKI-therapy duration 3-7 years was significantly associated with better well-being. Higher PCS or MCS score was significantly associated with higher satisfaction level with TKI-therapy and less impact of TKI-therapy on subject's daily life and work. In addition, adverse impact on daily life and work was significantly associated with more interests in TKI-therapy-related issues.

conclusionsSocial-economic and clinical variables were significantly associated with PROs in persons with CML receiving TKI-therapy.
