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
introductionSézary syndrome (SS) is a rare leukemic cutaneous T cell lymphoma. This study was conducted to examine the real-world treatment patterns among patients with SS in the USA from 2018 to 2020.
methodsThis was a retrospective cohort study using the Symphony Health Solutions claims database. Adult patients with ≥ 1 diagnosis code for SS were classified into three non-mutually exclusive cohorts: 2018, 2019, and 2020. Patient characteristics and treatment patterns were examined across the 3 years of study and reported descriptively for each year. Annual treatment patterns were also described for the five states with the highest proportions of SS patients in 2020.
resultsOverall, 869, 882, and 853 SS patients were identified in 2018, 2019, and 2020, respectively (median age: 70 years for each year; male: 54.4%, 54.8%, and 55.6%, respectively). The use of any systemic and parenteral systemic treatments increased over time. While utilization rates for many specific systemic therapies decreased over the study period, mogamulizumab use increased, making it the most commonly used systemic treatment in 2020 (29.2%) among patients with any systemic treatment. The five states with the highest proportions of SS patients in 2020 were Florida, New York, California, Texas, and Pennsylvania. Systemic treatment patterns varied considerably by state.
conclusionSome systemic therapies showed decreased usage over time while a few showed increased utilization, with mogamulizumab showing the largest increase. Treatment patterns for SS varied by region. Further research is needed to examine the factors that drive treatment selection for patients with SS.
