Review in Current oncology reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

purpose of reviewHealth-related quality of life (HRQoL) is a topic of great importance among older patients with cancer. Here we review the literature on HRQoL in older patients with colon and rectal cancer. RECENT

findingsHRQoL in older cancer patients with colon and rectal cancer can be impacted by care delivery model, use of selected treatments (i.e., chemotherapy), and the trajectory of the patient after surgery for colorectal cancer (CRC). HRQoL is an important outcome for older cancer patients. Greater numbers of older patients are undergoing treatment for CRC and may experience wide variations in quality of life during and after treatment. Trials should be developed with HRQoL as a primary outcome, and interventions need to be developed to maintain or improve HRQoL in older patients with cancer.
