Patterns of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in a diverse group of gynecologic cancer survivors.

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
objectivesRacial and ethnic disparities in patient-reported outcomes (PROs) among gynecologic cancer survivors are not well studied. We evaluated whether individual-level characteristics were associated with PROs in diverse gynecologic cancer survivors.
methodsGynecologic cancer patients in an ambulatory oncology clinic completed a psychosocial and practical needs assessment before their appointments through the electronic medical record (EMR) patient portal. Assessments were available in English and Spanish. Fatigue, pain, physical function, depression, and anxiety were assessed with Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS®) computer adaptive tests, and health-related quality of life was assessed by FACT-G7. PROs were dichotomized based on severity (normal/mild vs moderate/severe). Demographic and clinical information was collected. Analyses were performed using Chi-square, t-tests, and Kruskal-Wallis tests.
resultsA total of 582 women completed the assessment; 20% (n = 116) were racial minorities, and 54.5% (n = 310) were Hispanic. A total of 192 (32.8%) completed the assessments in Spanish. Hispanic patients had lower mean fatigue scores (49.31 vs 51.74, p = 0.01), and patients whose preferred language was Spanish had lower mean depression (47.63 vs 48.97, p = 0.05) and fatigue scores (48.27 vs 51.27, p < 0.01). There were no significant differences in the severity of PROs by race, ethnicity, or preferred language. QOL scores were worse in patients with high symptom severity for anxiety (p = 0.04) and physical functioning (p < 0.01). Current smokers had worse physical functioning (13.4% vs 6.5%, p = 0.03).
conclusionsWe found no significant differences in severity of PROs by race, ethnicity, or preferred language. Quality of life scores were worse for patients with high symptom severity for physical functioning and anxiety.
