Existing Health Inequities in the Treatment of Advanced and Metastatic Cancers.
Review in Current oncology reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purpose of reviewThis study aims to identify health inequities related to the medical treatment and supportive care of patients with advanced/metastatic cancer and recommend solutions to promote health equity. RECENT
findingsDespite robust strides in the development of therapeutic strategies for advanced and metastatic cancer, significant disparities in treatment access and implementation exist. Race, socioeconomic status, gender, and geography represent just a few of the individual-level factors which contribute to challenges in treatment administration, thorough evaluation of germline genetics and tumor genomics, and quality palliative and end-of-life care. Given the increasing complexity of cancer treatments and our enhanced understanding of tumor biology, efforts to uniformly provide equitable and high-level care to all patients are needed. In this review we will discuss factors that contribute to health inequities in patients with advanced and metastatic cancer diagnoses, highlighting opportunities for intervention, ongoing challenges in change implementation, and national and international society recommendations to eliminate disparities. Acknowledging existing inequities and engaging in multilevel discourse with key stakeholders is needed to optimize care practices to the benefit of all patients.
