Differences in Health-Related Outcomes and Health Care Resource Utilization in Breast Cancer Survivors With and Without Type 2 Diabetes.
Article in Journal of patient-centered research and reviews, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeUp to 74% of breast cancer survivors (BCS) have at least one preexisting comorbid condition, with diabetes (type 2) common. The purpose of this study was to examine differences in health-related outcomes (anemia, neutropenia, and infection) and utilization of health care resources (inpatient, outpatient, and emergency visits) in BCS with and without diabetes.
methodsIn this retrospective cohort study, data were leveraged from the electronic health records of a large health network linked to the Indiana State Cancer Registry. BCS diagnosed between January 2007 and December 2017 and who had received chemotherapy were included. Multivariable logistic regression and generalized linear models were used to determine differences in health outcomes and health care resources.
resultsThe cohort included 6851 BCS, of whom 1121 (16%) had a diagnosis of diabetes. BCS were, on average, 55 (standard deviation: 11.88) years old, the majority self-reported race as White (90%), and 48.8% had stage II breast cancer. BCS with diabetes were significantly older (mean age of 60.6 [SD: 10.34] years) than those without diabetes and were often obese (66% had body mass index of ≥33). BCS with diabetes had higher odds of anemia (odds ratio: 1.43; 95% CI: 1.04, 1.96) and infection (odds ratio: 1.86; 95% CI: 1.35, 2.55) and utilized more outpatient resources (P<0.0001).
conclusionsDiabetes has a deleterious effect on health-related outcomes and health care resource utilization among BCS. These findings support the need for clinical practice guidelines to help clinicians manage diabetes among BCS throughout the cancer trajectory and for coordinated models of care to reduce high resource utilization.
