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

AIMS AND

objectivesThe aim of this study was to identify the trajectory patterns of supportive care needs in Chinese older patients with breast cancer and their predictive factors.

methodsA total of 122 older patients with breast cancer were recruited. Demographic and disease-related information, type D personality, and supportive care needs were investigated at baseline, 3, and 6 months. Latent class growth model was used to identify the trajectory patterns of supportive care needs. Multiple logistic regression was used to determine the predictors for membership.

resultsThree trajectories with different characteristics of changing categories of supportive care needs were identified in the final analysis, named as "High needs decline group" (38.5%), "High needs sustained group" (51.6%), and "Low needs sustained group" (9.8%). Univariate analysis showed that age, education level, number of children, primary caregiver, pathological stage, surgical modality, treatment protocols, and personality traits were associated with the trajectory categories of supportive care needs of older patients with breast cancer. Multiple logistic regression showed that primary caregiver type, treatment protocols, and personality traits were influential factors in the trajectory of supportive care needs of older patients with breast cancer.

conclusionOur study demonstrates the heterogeneity of changes in supportive care needs. The supportive care needs of older patients with breast cancer show a trajectory of change in different categories, and healthcare providers can develop individualized interventions based on the characteristics of different patients.
