Contrasting Fake News in Oncology: The First Declaration of Good Communication.
Article in JCO global oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeNowadays, websites, online journals, and social media give access to an extraordinary amount of medical information. Misleading news are often disseminated generating false expectations, exaggerated anxiety, and confusion; in oncology setting, disinformation is perhaps more deleterious than in other fields, with a considerable impact on single patients as well as on families and, more in general, on Public Health. We aimed to promote a better interaction between the health care and the world of communication. MATERIALS AND
methodsA regional technical table was established with the aim of drafting a shared document through the consensus conference method in the RAND/University of California Los Angeles variant, identifying strategies to overcome barriers between communication and health care as well as to propose common criteria for an effective dissemination of medical information.
resultsSixteen articles met the inclusion criteria, from which 72 recommendations were drawn to the communication and health field (40 related to specific issues and 32 transversal to all the specific topics). Following an evaluation of relevance by the panel of experts, it was found that 57 recommendations scored more than 7, 13 between 4 and 6.9, and 2 below 4.
conclusionThis consensus and the drawn up document represent a concrete attempt to find a renewed and strategic alliance between key figures in health care and communication operators. As the American Declaration of Independence, our Declaration of Good Communication has identified high-impact recommendations for the best management of patients, providing simple but fundamental concepts and recommendations about effectiveness especially in oncology setting.
