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
introductionDespite the role of the Survivorship Care Plan (SCP) in facilitating treatment adherence, research on SCP receipt among cancer survivors with disabilities remains limited. Thus, our study investigated the association between SCP receipt and disability count among cancer survivors.
methodsWe analyzed cross-sectional data from the 2021 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, Cancer Survivorship: Course of Treatment module. The final sample included 2271 respondents with self-reported cancer history. The outcome was self-reported SCP receipt (0 = did not receive SCP, 1 = received written summary or follow-up care instructions, and 2 = received SCP-both). Independent variable was disability counts, comprised of six types: hearing, vision, cognition, mobility, self-care, and independent living difficulties. Disability count was categorized into 0 = none, 1 one disability, 2 = two disabilities, and 3 = ≥ 3 disabilities. We conducted weighted descriptive statistics and multinomial multivariable logistic regression.
resultsThe sample was mostly White (70.62%), female (59.42%), and aged ≥ 65 (54.88%). About 57% reported no disability, 20.89% reported 1-disability, 11.03% 2-disabilities, and 11.47% ≥ 3 disabilities. Mobility issues were the most common disability (26.86%), while self-care difficulties were the least common (6.40%). About 12.12% of cancer survivors did not receive SCP, 35.03% received either treatment summaries or follow-up care instructions, and 52.84% received SCP. Compared to those without disability, survivors with ≥ 3 disabilities had lower odds of receiving SCP (AOR 0.44, 95% CI 0.22-0.88, p = 0.022).
conclusionsThis study suggests disparities in SCP receipt by disability count. Addressing such disparities can promote treatment adherence and reduction of missed follow-up.
