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

CONTEXT AND

objectivesThe present study examined the perspectives of healthcare providers (HCPs) in designing a multi-disciplinary model of supportive cancer care for the relief of dermatology-related symptoms caused by monoclonal antibody therapies.

methodsThe study employed a mixed research methodology, with qualitative research embedded within a pragmatic prospective study of a registry protocol study. Patients undergoing oncology therapy with MoAB, anti-HER2, and anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibodies were identified among a cohort of patients referred to an integrative oncology (IO) consultation for symptom relief and improved quality of life (QoL). Case studies with significant dermatology-related concerns were selected and presented to a panel of 6 HCPs trained in medical oncology, oncology nursing, family medicine, supportive cancer care, and IO. HCP narratives were qualitatively analyzed and assessed using ATLAS.Ti software for systematic coding.

resultsOf the 924 patients referred to the IO consultation, 208 were treated with monoclonal antibodies, from which 50 were selected for further evaluation. Of these, 7 cases were presented to the HCP team who were asked to identify treatment gaps requiring a multi-disciplinary approach. Qualitative analysis identified 3 major themes: a biophysical perspective; a psycho-social-spiritual perspective; and the implementation of integrated care. DISCUSSION: There is a need for a multi-disciplinary approach when treating patients suffering from monoclonal antibody treatment-related skin toxicities. HCP-reported themes highlight the need to identify patients for whom such an approach is warranted; conditions in which a psycho-social-spiritual perspective should be considered, in addition to a bio-physical approach; and considerations of who should be designated as the patient's primary case manager.
