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
backgroundThere seems to be inequity within cancer survivorship care in primary care settings related to gender, shorter education, and early poor health, but there is uncertainty regarding the character of the needs in hospital and in primary care settings and whether there is inequity regarding meeting these needs. This study aims to describe potential differences in needs among patients in hospital and in primary care settings, and to assess the need for survivorship care and rehabilitation in patients with cancer in relation to socioeconomic status.
methodsIn a cross-sectional study including patients in hospital (n = 89) and primary care settings (n = 99), information from needs assessments was linked with population-based data on socioeconomic status via unique personal identification numbers. The association between socioeconomic status and stated needs was analyzed separately for patients in hospital and primary care settings, with adjustment for age and gender.
resultsA total of 90% patients expressed one or more needs in the physical area, 51% in the emotional area, and 40% in the practical area. Patients in primary care expressed more needs than patients in hospital. Men expressed more needs than women in primary care (adjusted odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval (CI)): 2.66 (1.04 - 6.79)). The results indicate that higher socioeconomic status is associated with fewer stated needs.
conclusionsThis study suggests that the association between gender and stated needs may depend on healthcare setting and confirms that higher socioeconomic status in relation to civil status, educational level, income, and labor market status is associated with fewer stated needs.
