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

There have been recent advances in both cancer and sepsis management. This study aimed to assess short and long-term mortality trends in cancer patients with septic shock from 2009 to 2017 by cancer type. This nationwide population-based cohort study using data from the National Health Insurance Service of Korea included adult cancer patients who presented to an emergency department (ED) with septic shock from 2009 to 2017. Among 43,466 adult cancer patients with septic shock (90% solid and 10% hematologic cancer cases), the 30-day and 1-year mortality rates were 52.1% and 81.3%, respectively. The overall 30-day mortality showed a marked decrease of 4.8% annually from 2013 to 2017, but the annual decrease in the 1-year mortality over the same period was only 1.9%. Pancreatic cancer cases showed the most significant improvement in 30-day mortality between 2014 and 2019 (11.0% decrease/year). Lung and stomach cancers showed a sustained decrease in 30-day mortality during the whole study period (1.7% and 2.0% decrease/year, respectively). The outcomes of cancer patients with septic shock have improved in recent years across most cancer types. Physicians should have expectations of an improved prognosis in cancer patients admitted to the ED with septic shock.
