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

backgroundAlthough reproductive failure after cancer treatment in children and young adults has been extensively described in high-income countries, there is a paucity of data in low-income settings. In addition, patient, parent, or health worker experiences, perspectives, and attitudes toward the risk of reproductive failure among young cancer patients in these settings are unknown. This study will describe the extent of reproductive morbidity associated with cancer treatment among childhood and young adult cancer survivors in Uganda. In addition, we aim to explore the contextual enablers and barriers to addressing cancer treatment-related reproductive morbidity in Uganda.

methodsThis is an explanatory sequential mixed-method study. The quantitative phase will be a survey among childhood and young adult cancer survivors recruited from the Kampala Cancer Registry (KCR). The survey will utilize a Computer Assisted Telephone Interview (CATI) platform on a minimum of 362 survivors. The survey will obtain information on self-reported reproductive morbidity and access to oncofertility care. The qualitative phase will use grounded theory to explore contextual barriers and enablers to addressing reproductive morbidity associated with cancer treatment. The quantitative and qualitative phases will be integrated at the intermediate and results stage.

conclusionResults from this study will inform the development of policy, guidelines, and programs supporting reproductive health among childhood and young adult cancer survivors.
