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

purposeCancer survivors develop cancer and treatment-related morbidities at younger than normal ages and are at risk for early mortality, suggestive of an aging phenotype. The Cumulative Illness Rating Scale for Geriatrics (CIRS-G) is specifically designed to describe the accumulation of comorbidities over time with estimates of severity such as total score (TS) which is a sum of possible conditions weighted by severity. These severity scores can then be used to predict future mortality.

methodsCIRS-G scores were calculated in cancer survivors and their siblings from Childhood Cancer Survivor Study cohort members from two time points 19 years apart and members of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 1999 to 2004. CIRS-G metrics were analyzed using Cox proportional hazards regression to determine subsequent mortality risk.

resultsIn total, 14,355 survivors with a median age of 24 (IQR, 18-30) years and 4,022 siblings with a median age of 26 (IQR, 19-33) years provided baseline data; 6,138 survivors and 1,801 siblings provided follow-up data. Cancer survivors had higher median baseline TS than siblings at baseline (5.75

conclusionApplication of a geriatric rating scale to characterize disease supports the hypothesis that morbidity accumulation is accelerated in young adult survivors of childhood cancer when compared with siblings and the general population.
