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

purposeTo examine the prevalence and cancer-specific patterns of functional disabilities among US cancer survivors.

methodsData from 47,768 cancer survivors and 2,432,754 noncancer adults age 18 years and older from the 2017 to 2022 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System were analyzed. Functional disabilities assessed included mobility disability (ie, serious difficulty walking or climbing stairs) and self-care disability (ie, self-reported difficulty dressing or bathing). Multivariable logistic regression models were used to assess the associations between functional disabilities and sociodemographic, lifestyle, and health-related factors.

resultsCancer survivors tended to be older and non-Hispanic White than noncancer adults. The prevalence of mobility disability (27.9%

conclusionOver a quarter of US cancer survivors reported mobility disability, and nearly 10% reported self-care disability, with patterns varying across cancer types and treatment status. Racial/ethnic minorities, along with underserved groups and individuals with unhealthy lifestyles or comorbidities, were notably more affected by functional disabilities, underscoring the need for targeted disability prevention efforts.
