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

backgroundPatients with cancer are at risk of developing arterial thromboembolism (ATE). With the prevalence of cancer and cardiovascular diseases on the rise, the identification of risk factors for ATE in patients with cancer is of emerging importance.

objectivesAs data on the association of potential biomarkers with risk of ATE in patients with cancer are scarce, we conducted a cohort study with the aim to identify blood-based biomarkers for ATE risk prediction in patients with cancer. PATIENTS/

methodsOverall, 1883 patients with newly diagnosed cancer or progressive disease after complete or partial remission were included and followed for 2 years. Venous blood was drawn at study inclusion for measurement of complete blood count parameters, total cholesterol, d-dimer, and soluble P-selectin (sP-selectin) levels.

resultsThe 2-year cumulative incidence of ATE was 2.5%. In univariable analysis, red cell distribution width (subdistribution hazard ratio (SHR) per doubling: 4.4, 95% CI: 1.4-14.1), leukocyte count (1.2, 1.1-1.5), neutrophil count (1.6, 1.1-2.3), and sP-selectin levels (1.9, 1.3-2.7) were associated with risk of ATE in patients with cancer; d-dimer was not associated with the risk of ATE (1.1, 0.9-1.4). After adjustment for age, sex, and smoking status the association prevailed for the neutrophil count (adjusted [adj.] SHR per doubling: 1.6, 1.1-2.4), and sP-selectin levels (1.8, 1.2-2.8).

conclusionsAn elevated absolute neutrophil count and higher sP-selectin levels were associated with an increased risk of ATE in patients with cancer. Their role for predicting cancer-related ATE needs to be validated in further studies.
