Mycosis Fungoides and Associated Malignancies in a Dutch Nationwide Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Acta dermato-venereologica, 2024. 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
The prognosis of patients with mycosis fungoides is variable. As the current literature is scarce and shows mixed results this study investigates the incidence of other primary malignancies in mycosis fungoides patients. A retrospective, nationwide, population- based cohort study was performed with patients with mycosis fungoides between 2000 and 2020 in The Netherlands. All histopathology reports were requested from the Nationwide Network and Registry of Histo- and Cytopathology and screened for other primary malignancies. Lifelong incidence rates were used to compare the incidence of malignancies in mycosis fungoides patients and the general population. In total 1,024 patients were included with a mean follow-up of 10 years (SD 6). A total of 294 cases of other primary malignancies were found with 29% of the mycosis fungoides patients developing at least 1 other primary malignancy. Only cutaneous (odds ratio [OR] 2.54; CI 2.0-3.2) and haematological malignancies (OR 2.62; CI 2.00-3.42) had a statistically significant higher incidence than the Dutch population overall. Mycosis fungoides patients have a significantly increased risk of developing melanomas (OR 2.76; CI 2.11-3.59) and cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas mycosis fungoides (OR 2.34; CI 1.58-3.45). This study shows no association between mycosis fungoides and other solid organ tumours; however, such patients are significantly at risk of developing other haematological and cutaneous malignancies. Clinicians should be aware of this increased risk.
