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

Survival information for Japanese patients with cancer is based only on survival status and the cause of death among these patients remains unclear. In this study, Osaka Cancer Registry data (1985-2014) and vital statistics data (1985-2016) were linked to create a database, permitting the extraction of data on the causes of death. In total, 522,566 subjects diagnosed with cancer between 1995 and 2011 were analyzed. Follow-up for vital status was conducted 5 and 10 years after cancer diagnosis. To evaluate the three causes of death (index cancer, non-index cancer, and non-cancer death), cause-specific hazard and cumulative incidence functions were estimated using a life table and Gray's methods. The number of deaths owing to any of the causes in the observation period (median: 3.51 years, mean: 4.90 years) was 394,146. The 5- and 10-year cancer-specific survival rate was 48.56% and 39.92%, respectively. Immediately after cancer onset, the hazard of index cancer death was high. The proportion of non-index cancer deaths was high in patients with mouth and pharynx cancers. The hazard of index cancer death remained constant for breast and liver cancers. In prostate, breast, and laryngeal cancers with good prognosis, the hazard of non-index cancer and non-cancer death constantly increased.
