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

Background: Patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) often have indolent but symptomatic disease. Objective: Assessment of the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients with CTCL. Methods: Cross-sectional survey study. HRQoL was measured by Skindex-16 and FACT-G. Results: A total of 372 responses were received; 80 incomplete/ineligible responses were excluded. A majority of respondents identified as white (87%; 250/288) and female (67%; 193/286) with a mean age of 57 ± 14 years. Most patients had early-stage (IA-IIA) (74%; 162/203) mycosis fungoides (87%; 241/279). There were 33 (12%; 33/279) patients with Sézary syndrome. Mean itch score (visual analogue scale; VAS) was 3.2 ± 2.8, overall; 2.7 ± 2.6 for early, and 4.2 ± 2.9 for advanced disease ( Limitations: Include anonymous survey methodology, underrepresentation of certain CTCL subtypes and non-white respondents. Conclusions: Patients with CTCL, particularly those with advanced disease or involvement of the head/neck, acral or groin/genital sites, experience significant impact on HRQoL.
