Employment status among cancer survivors in a Late Effects Clinic in Denmark.
Article in Journal of cancer survivorship : research and practice, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
purposeThis study aims to investigate changes in employment status among disease-free working-age cancer survivors (CSs) with late effects from diagnosis to their first meeting in the Late Effects Clinic (LEC) and investigate associated patient-reported outcomes of reduced employment status.
methodsRetrospective analysis of a cohort of CSs followed in a LEC at a single institution from January, 2022, to March, 2023. Working-age CSs with no current evidence of active cancer were included in this study. CSs completed a baseline questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-SURV100) before their initial consultation. Reduced employment status was defined as transition from being in paid work at diagnosis to working fewer hours or not at all at the first visit. Multivariate linear regression analysis was used.
resultsA total of 119 CSs with diverse cancer types with a mean age of 51 years (range 26 to 70) were included in this study. Eighty percent were female. Of 93 CSs in paid work at diagnosis, 66 (71%) have reduced employment status. Reduced employment status was associated with lower role functioning score (β = -12.3, p = 0.046), higher loss of income score (β = 35.1, p = 0.001), and lower Global health status score (β = - 8.3, p = 0.05).
conclusionsThis study shows that the majority of CSs seen in the LEC have reduced employment status. This is associated with impaired quality of life. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS: Identifying and treating late effects early in cancer survivorship are important to secure CSs' labour market attachment and, thus, their financial and social well-being.
