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

Primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS) is usually a mild disease, but serious complications such as non-Hodgkin lymphoma-and hypothetically other malignancies-may develop. The aim of this study was to evaluate both overall and specific incidence of cancer in a cohort of patients with pSS compared to the expected incidence in general population of Argentina. Retrospective analytic study of pSS patients fulfilling American-European Consensus Group (AECG) criteria, followed from the time of their diagnosis until the end of the study, death, loss of follow- up, or being given a diagnosis of cancer. Cancer incidence for the general population was obtained from GLOBOCAN 2018, and demographic information was obtained from the national institute for statistics and census. Age- and sex-specific Standardized Incidence Ratio (SIR) were then calculated. One hundred fifty-seven patients, with a mean age of 57.8 years (SD 18.3), were included. Mean patient follow-up duration was 7.37 years (SD 4.2), contributing to a total of 1158 patient/years. Fifteen patients developed a malignancy during follow-up. Cancer incidence for pSS patients was compared with the general population's incidence through SIRs. Female patient's SIRs for overall cancer was 4.17 (95% CI 2.30-6.87), non-Hodgkin lymphoma 41.40 (95% CI 10.12-102.1), multiple myeloma 41.49 (95% CI 1.14-167.28), tongue cancer 44.4 (95% CI 1.23-177.31), uterus cancer 8.39 (95% CI 0.19-40.73), lung cancer 4.51 (95% CI 0.1-22.16), and breast cancer 3.76 (95% CI 1.04-9.45). An increased overall cancer risk, and particularly for non-Hodgkin lymphoma, multiple myeloma, breast cancer and tongue cancer was observed in female pSS patients compared to control group.
