Assessing the relationship between institutional cancer and diabetes mortality rates using National Death Index data.
Article in Future science OA, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
aimTo evaluate overall survival (OS), glycemic control in cancer patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM). PATIENTS &
methodsPatients (2010-2015) with newly diagnosed prostate, breast, lung, colorectal and pancreatic cancers were identified in institutional cancer registry. Data linked to National Death Index for vital status. 5-year OS estimated; glucose and hemoglobin A
resultsWe identified 1404 patients (non-DM, n = 936; DM, n = 468). DM cohort had 168 deaths (36%); non-DM, 267 (29%). 5-year OS estimated at 58% (95% CI: 53-64%) for DM and 67% (95% CI: 64-71%) for controls; for matched pairs, hazard ratio: 1.35 (95% CI: 1.02-1.79). Cancer did not harm glycemic control.
conclusionOS among cancer patients with DM was lower than without DM.
